hot take i will absolutely not stand by in a few hours
xml is actually great, both to read and write, by humans and machines (at least as a subset of xml).
@CobaltVelvet For JSON, the solution is to use jq, for pretty-printing.
jq "." | less
@bortzmeyer jq "." -C | less -R 😉
@bortzmeyer i never remember the parameters to make it work nicely with less
