quotes nested values in json

	# problem :
	# was trying to import a 3D model in a web page in json format for use with threejs : https://github.com/mrdoob/three.js
	# 3D model was exported from maya using this threejs plugin # https://github.com/mrdoob/three.js/tree/master/utils/exporters/maya
	# exported json had two problems:
	# 1. all of it was in one line, i.e no indents
	# 2. float values inside keys were not quoted i.e stringified.
	# here's the snippet, it converts the 'bad' json to 'good' ( quoted json )
