Without the handler you need to read the output with |ch_read()| or
|ch_readraw()|. You can do this in the close callback, see |read-in-close-cb|.
+Note that if the job exits before you read the output, the output may be lost.
+This depends on the system (on Unix this happens because closing the write end
+of a pipe causes the read end to get EOF). To avoid this make the job sleep
+for a short while before it exits.

The handler defined for "out_cb" will not receive stderr. If you want to
handle that separately, add an "err_cb" handler: >
let job = job_start(command, {"out_cb": "MyHandler",
