JSON.pm required

[werg]

Hey,
the current version seemingly requires the(?) JSON lib for Perl.
I know you mentioned you wanted to make a version without that dependency, but irregardless of that i think it would be nice for Perl neophytes (or longlong-time apostates) who are used to the likes of maven, pip, npm to tell them something like "you can just get this from your package manager", in the readme or the help.

Thanks for reporting this! nfu was indeed hard-requiring JSON, which is quite unfortunate. I changed this to a soft-require with better failure logic, and it also tries to use JSON::PP if it can't find JSON proper. Failing either one of those it should go on its way with no JSON support (so json_encode and json_decode will throw errors).

Can you give the latest version a try without a JSON library installed and see if it works?
