`structure JSONPrinter`

  A printer for JSON output.

`structure JSONUtil`

  A collection of utility functions for working with JSON values.

`structure JSONDecode`

  A collection of combinators for decoding JSON values.

### Stream-based API

`structure JSONStreamParser`

  A stream (or event) based parser for JSON input.

`signature JSON_STREAM_OUTPUT`

  The interface to a stream-based printer for JSON output.

`structure JSONBufferPrinter`

  A stream-based printer for JSON output to character buffers.

`structure JSONStreamPrinter`

  A stream-based printer for JSON output to text files.

## Usage
