+If you have to edit json files from vim, you may want to make them more
+readable, here is how you can do this:
+
+start by installing the JSON::XS perl module from the CPAN by running
+=sudo cpan JSON::XS=, then, edit your .vimrc and add the following
+
+#+BEGIN_EXAMPLE
+ map <leader>jt <Esc>:%!json_xs -f json -t json-pretty<CR>
+#+END_EXAMPLE
+
+now while editing a json file, you can hit =,jt= (or whatever your
+leader is set to) and tidify a json.
