In case you didn't notice: this makes it possible to see the output of a
command in a buffer. For example:
let job = job_start("tail -f /tmp/log", {'out-io': 'buffer',
'out-name': 'dummy'})
sbuf dummy
Now append something to /tmp/log and it will show up.
The paint is still wet on this feature, if you notice a problem let me
know. Or better: send a patch!

So when I saw the post to comp.editors, I rushed over to the FTP site to
grab it. So I yank apart the tarball, light x candles, where x= the
vim version multiplied by the md5sum of the source divided by the MAC of
my NIC (8A3FA78155A8A1D346C3C4A), put on black robes, dim the lights,
wave a dead chicken over the hard drive, and summon the power of GNU GCC
with the magic words "make config ; make!".
