final notes on attempts to convert XML to JSON in Max

For now I am using the following method:

• Write xml using jit.textfile
• use aka.shell to convert xml to json using python script xml2json.py (modified header)
• read the json file in using method in JSON_Readwrite.maxhelp

Its not elegant but it works on the MAC – without installing additional software, like node.js and all of its packages.

update: 3 weeks later. Have been using the above method and also calling curl from aka.shell – writing XML files to /tmp – Then following steps 2 and 3 above. Works fine.
