23 To customize the printing of the JSON, pass a dictionary of options as the first
24 argument. Supported options are "prefix" and "indent". Each JSON element in
25 the output will begin on a new line beginning with *prefix* followed by one or
26 more copies of *indent* according to the indentation nesting.
