It is. JSON documents normally don't contain newlines. The complexity
I was referring to is linked to the myriad of data types we have in
hansl, each of which requires a different JSON-isation. For example, I
would have stored matrices in a completely different way (that is,
vectorisation + 2 scalars for dimensions, similar to what we use in
mread/mwrite), but your solution is also nice and has its own advantages.
I guess one would try to target a format that is easily understood by
the already existing json tools in R, Python etc. Maybe Artur knows what
they would look like.
