# `kumo.json_load(FILENAME)` Reads the content of the file name `FILENAME` and parses it as JSON, returning a lua representation of the parsed JSON. This json loading implementation will accept C style block comments, C++ style single line comments and shell style single line comments. Comments will be treated as though they were spaces prior to being parsed by the underlying json parser.
