title: Simple JSON string escape for C++?
body: <p>I'm having a very simple program that outputs simple JSON string that I manually concatenate together and output through the std::cout stream (the output really is that simple) but I have strings that could contain double-quotes, curly-braces and other characters that could break the JSON string. So I need a library (or a function more accurately) to escape strings accordingly to the JSON standard, as lightweight as possible, nothing more, nothing less.</p>
  
  <p>I found a few libraries that are used to encode whole objects into JSON but having in mind my program is 900 line cpp file, I rather want to not rely on a library that is few times bigger then my program just to achieve something as simple as this.</p>
