+#
+# Behavior:
+#   Userscript for qutebrowser which will take the raw JSON text of the current
+#   page, format it using `jq`, will add syntax highlighting using `pygments`,
+#   and open the syntax highlighted pretty printed html in a new tab. If the file
+#   is larger than 10MB then this script will only indent the json and will forego
+#   syntax highlighting using pygments.
+#
+#   In order to use this script, just start it using `spawn --userscript` from
+#   qutebrowser. I recommend using an alias, e.g. put this in the
+#   [alias]-section of qutebrowser.conf:
+#
+#     json = spawn --userscript /path/to/json_format
+#
+#   Note that the color style defaults to monokai, but a different pygments style
+#   can be passed as the first parameter to the script. A full list of the pygments
+#   styles can be found at: https://help.farbox.com/pygments.html
