I looked at the source for `parseJSON` and I see references
only to `JSONOptions.strictParsing` and
`JSONOptions.specialFloatLiterals`. I may be missing something,
but I don't see any option to iterating over every element and
unescaping manually.
So it looks like `.toString(JSONOptions.doNotEscapeSlashes)` is
the correct way to do what I need:
```
import std.conv, std.json, std.stdio;
void main() {
auto json = parseJSON(`{"a": "path/file"}`);
writeln(json["a"].toString);
writeln(json["a"].to!string);
writeln(json["a"].toString(JSONOptions.doNotEscapeSlashes));
}
```
I was using to!string to be consistent with my other D code, and
thought that would be okay since toString returns the same value.
What I didn't realize is that I might need to send options to
toString.
