This enables awk-like usage and much more control than -a+lookups.
Example:

curl -s  -X GET -H "Content-Type: application/json" https://api.cdnjs.com/libraries/ \
  | json results \
  | json -c '
    if (this.latest) 
        console.log(sprintf("%-40s %s", this.name, this.latest.length < 80 ? this.latest : 
                                                      "..."+this.latest.substr(-75))); 
    return false' \
  | grep -v '\[\]'

Thank you for the PR! and my apologies for not having responded for years.

I am declining this change because I don't want to increase the scope, especially given that I find little time for maintenance.
