+as well as a command-line tool to improve readabilty of streams of JSON data.
+The library provides the function @code{encodePretty}.  It is a drop-in
+replacement for aeson's @code{encode} function, producing JSON-ByteStrings for
+human readers.  The command-line tool reads JSON from stdin and writes
+prettified JSON to stdout.  It also offers a complementary \"compact\"-mode,
+essentially the opposite of pretty-printing.")
