                            more then once)

      options are: s (string - default), b (boolean), i (integer), f (float)

Installation
------------

`jsontool` should work on any platform where [Python](http://python.org) is available, it means Linux, Windows, MacOS X etc. There is no required dependencies, plain Python power :)

To install, simply use `pip`:

    pip install jsontool

If you do not want to use `pip` tool, then go to [GitHub releases](https://github.com/mysz/jsontool/releases), download newest release, unpack and put somewhere in `PATH` (ie. `~/bin` or `/usr/local/bin`).

If You want to install newest unstable version, then just copy file to your PATH, for example:

    curl https://raw.github.com/mysz/jsontool/master/jsontool.py > /usr/local/bin/jsontool

or:

    wget https://raw.github.com/mysz/jsontool/master/jsontool.py -O /usr/local/bin/jsontool

Voila!
