let g:idx  += 1
let g:data .= string(g:idx)
let g:data .= a:data
let self  = a:self

catch /.*/
echomsg 'begin'.string(a:data).'end'

let lines = split(a:data, "\n", 1)
" echomsg string(lines)
call extend(self.lines, lines)

function! helper#job_exit_cb(self, data) abort   "{{{
let a:self.running = 0
