jq
==

jq is a command-line JSON processor.

If you want to learn to use jq, read the documentation at
[http://stedolan.github.io/jq](http://stedolan.github.io/jq). This
documentation is generated from the docs/ folder of this repository.

If you want to hack on jq, feel free, but be warned that its internals
are not well-documented at the moment. Bring a hard hat and a
shovel. Also, read the wiki: http://github.com/stedolan/jq/wiki

If you're building directly from the latest git, you'll need flex and
bison installed. To build, run:

    autoreconf -i
    ./configure
    make

After make finishes, you'll be able to use `./jq`. You can also
install it using:

    sudo make install

If you're not using the latest git version but instead building a
released tarball (available on the website), then you won't need to
run `autoreconf` (and shouldn't), and you won't need flex or bison.
