Options
The available command line options are:
-iinfile, --in=infile

omitted, then pmjson will read from the standard input stream.
-m, --minimal
Produce JSON output with all superfluous whitespace removed from the resulting JSON string.
-ooutfile, --out=outfile
Formatted output is written to the named outfile. If this option is omitted, then pmjson will write
to the standard output stream.
-p, --pretty
Produce JSON output in a human-readable format.
-q, --quiet
Verify the input as valid JSON only, no output is produced.
-V, --version
Display version number and exit.
-y, --yaml
Produce YAML-like output, a human-readable format with less syntactic sugar than JSON.
-?, --help

Pcp Environment
Environment variables with the prefix PCP_ are used to parameterize the file and directory names used by
PCP. On each installation, the file /etc/pcp.conf contains the local values for these variables. The
$PCP_CONF variable may be used to specify an alternative configuration file, as described in pcp.conf(5).
