    Description

    StringToJSONString examines the string S and replaces any special characters by an escaped string, as in the JSON specification. The following characters are escaped: 

    \ "  #8 #9 #10 #12 #13.

    Strict indicates that only the absolutely necessary characters will be escaped (when set to True) when convering string values to JSON If set to False/ will also be escaped, although this is strictly speaking not necessary.
