Examples
<lsl> string Json2CSV(string csv){//Converts a Json into a string of comma separated values. == Removes the top level [ and ] and all " from top level JSON_STRING values.
list li llJson2List(li); return llList2CSV(Li);
} //If the Json is a 1-dimensional array of strings like "[\"a\",\"b\",\"c\"]", the returned CSV-string will be: "a,b,c" //This is a much shorter CSV that will save some memory. //If the Json contains a nested arrays like "[[1,2],["PI",4]]", the returned csv string will be : "[1,2],[\"Pi\",4]" //"[1,2],[\"Pi\",4]" is not a very readable CSV-string and not shortened by much. "PI" is not a top level string value because it is nested 1 level deeper.llJson2List unescapes those.
