Hello there,

this is almost certainly not the right way to do this; so apols for that ;)

Synopsis;
  For reasons I myself barely understand, I was looking to see how<br/> difficult it might be to add support for json output to getfacl.

Anyways, I pulled the code, created a branch and hacked away.

In this first attempt I have managed to produce some valid json<br/> output: by modifying do_print().  But I see it will require furthur<br/> thought in relation to acl_to_any_text() or perhaps a separate function like do_show().


I've attached a patch for this PoC. Changes are against next@a966a2b.<br/>  The other three files are an example of current output, and two possible alternative future desired outputs.

Anyways.  Thought I'd share this "because".
So feel free to ignore, or like whatever, etc...
