Description

While Im testing the code I have seen that full_default do not return the data, just only logs it. To be able to retrieve them I have override the print and printErr handlers to extract the data and then apply clunky regexes. Could not be awesome if we could gather the output instead of the error code? Or both?

Contributor guide

Research direction
Study the existing Emscripten bridge code in whisper.cpp to understand how full default handles output. Then implement a mechanism to pass text segments and token data via a callback or promise to JavaScript.
