  <para>
   Ordinarily, anything output (such as with <function>echo</function>
   or <function>print</function>) will be output as though it were printed
   from the parent's scope.  Using <function>runkit_sandbox_output_handler</function>
   however, output generated by the sandbox (including errors), can be captured
   by a function outside of the sandbox.

    <title>Deprecated</title>
    <para>
      As of runkit version 0.5, this function is deprecated and is scheduled to
      be removed from the package prior to a 1.0 release.  The output handler for
      a given Runkit_Sandbox instance may be read/set using the array offset syntax
      shown on the <link linkend="runkit.sandbox">Runkit_Sandbox</link> class definition page.

       Name of a function which expects one parameter.
       Output generated by <parameter>sandbox</parameter> will be passed
       to this callback.  Anything returned by the callback will be displayed
       normally.  If this parameter is not passed then output handling will not be changed.
       If a non-truth value is passed, output handling will be disabled and will revert to
       direct display.
