Description:

JSON (JavaScript Object Notation, http://json.org) is a lightweight
data-interchange format.
It is easy for humans to read and write. It is easy for machines to
parse and generate.
It is based on a subset of the JavaScript Programming Language,
Standard ECMA-262 3rd Edition - December 1999.
This feature can also be found in Python. JSON is a text format that is
completely language independent
but uses conventions that are familiar to programmers of the C-family
of languages, including
C, C++, C#, Java, JavaScript, Perl, TCL, and many others. These
properties make JSON an ideal
data-interchange language.

This package provides a simple encoder and decoder for JSON notation.
It is intended for use
with client-side Javascript applications that make use of HTTPRequest
to perform server
communication functions - data can be encoded into JSON notation for
use in a client-side
javascript, or decoded from incoming Javascript requests. JSON format
is native to Javascript,
and can be directly eval()'ed with no further parsing overhead.
