This is a RenPy-specific construct, not directly part of the python programming language. RenPy mentions it in its guide to python statements:

A common case is to have a single line of Python that runs in the default store. For example, a Python one-liner can be used to initialize or update a flag. To make writing Python one-liners more convenient, there is the one-line Python statement.

The one-line Python statement begins with the dollar-sign $ character, and contains everything else on that line. Here are some example of Python one-liners:

You can do it this way:

• get list of process thread ids, using CreateToolhelp32Snapshot
• go to first thread using methods: Thread32First.
• for each found thread (you should check if belong to the given process):
• then Open the thread using OpenThread in manner to retrieve handle to the thread from it thread id,
• when you have the handle, you can suspend the thread using SuspendThread in manner to retrieve the previous suspension count,
• then you can Resume the thread until it suspension count is 0. you must resume at least once in manner to cancel the suspension from the previous step.
• if thread are not allowed to be suspended, you can use ResumeThread just to get the suspension count even if it was not suspended.
• Close the thread handle using CloseHandle
• iterate to next thread use Thread32Next.

This works fine If I using XAMPP but on my webserver it does not works

XAMPP is a package that includes a web server, so presumably, you mean that it doesn't work if you use a web server that is running on a different computer.

This shouldn't be a surprise as the other computer won't have your hard disk in it, so it won't have your C drive or your files.

You need to either:

• Share your file over the network to the computer running the web server (since the web server probably doesn't run on your LAN, this is likely to be logistically challenging).
• Copy the file to the computer running the web server.

A workaround will be to use task with a max wait timeout for getting the response

This a good start. What I would definitely change is to return JSON data. For your current use case it seems that you want to only return a list of filenames, so this should work.
