> Not to mention using `--<CMD>`

If you read further down in the documentation, you can just prefix your command with `jc` (e.g. `jc ls`). The `--cmd` param is actually a good idea, since it allows you to mangle the data before converting it (e.g. you want to grep a list before converting it).

Regarding maintenance, most of the basic unix commands' output shouldn't change too much (they'd be breaking not only this tool but a lot of scripts). I wouldn't expect it to break as often as you imagine, at least not because of other binaries being updated.
