--I "string" : specify a string which contains a Perl data structure in text representation, not as a (binary) serialised object. But exactly as one would have used in a Perl script.

--o outputfilename : specify the output filename to write the result to.

--escape-unicode : it will escape all unicode characters, and convert them to something like "\u0386"

--pretty : write this JSON pretty, line breaks, indendations, "the full catastrophe"

Input can be read from an input file (--i), from a string at the command line (--I) (properly quoted!), from STDIN (which also includes a file redirection json2json.pl < inputfile.json > outputfile.json
