Laurent_R:

Yep, that's why my ~/bin directory contains json_prettify.pl:

#!/usr/bin/perl
#
#   json_prettify.pl <FName>
#
#   Prettifies FName and writes it to FName.out
#
use strict;
use warnings;
use JSON;

my $json = JSON->new->allow_nonref;

while (my $FName = shift) {
    my $oname = $FName . ".out";
    my $txt;
    {
        local $/;
        open my $FH, '<', $FName or die "no! $!\n";
        $txt = <$FH>;
    }
    my $data = $json->decode($txt);
    $txt = $json->pretty->encode($data);
    open my $OFH, '>', $oname or die "No no no! $!\n";
    print $OFH $txt;
}

I really need to make a thumb drive with my local ~/bin directory copied to it for when I visit other sites... ;^)

When your only tool is a hammer, all problems look like your thumb.
