Mercurial as a software repository

Hello Guys,

I would to use a Mercurial repository as a source where I can look for
files. Right now, our project uses a Mercurial repository with Google Code.
What I want to do is to access the repository under Google Code, get the
list of files under the tip (or another version) then choose the files that
I need and copy them somewhere on the local machine.

I made a search and I was unable to find something like the 'ls' unix
command. This is what I would need.

Parsing the html file sent by Google for the repository address seems to be
an ugly solution.

I also need a way to access files individually by name from the Mercurial
repository to copy them locally.

I am now programming using Python.

Does Mercurial offers a solution for what I want?
