[Paraview] Determining reader handle from state file question

[Robert Maynard]

To gather the readers that have been created from the state file can be 
done like this:

pxm = servermanager.ProxyManager()
sources = pxm.GetProxiesInGroup('sources')

To load a state file from a python you can use the command:

servermanager.LoadState(path)
