Comment on Jshon: A command line program to parse, read and create JSON

Comments

Jsawk seems more intuitive, as you get to write JavaScript instead of combining command-line flags: https://github.com/micha/jsawk

Found that, decided I did not want Spidermonkey on my server running untrusted user generated JS. Also, it seemed ironic to have Spidermonkey be a dependency for my "lightweight" shell scripts.

This is what I thought too. JSON is lightweight and so should be the tools for using it.
