Re: [9front] str2json and jsonfmt

["Dave MacFarlane" <driusan@driusan.net>]

I wrote something similar to OP's str2json which I call jsonfmt which
I use all the time, so I'm definitely in favour of including it.

If there's going to be a /bin/json/* hierarchy another candidate would
be a json/fs.  I have one that I wrote for myself here:
https://github.com/driusan/fedi9/blob/front/jsonfs.c to make it easier
to deal with json in shell scripts but I don't think it's very good or
up to 9front standards (it's not well documented and it can get
crash-y when you try and re-use same /mnt/json/ctl with different
json).  There may be other json/fs implementations out there in the
world.
