		exm
		===

		A (hobby) library to support the encoding of Javascript object inheritance in JSON. This library is not yet available via NPM, and is under active pre-release development.

		## Inserting external values
		You can insert external values into object fields if the value for any key starts with the dot-space `'. <url>'` notation.
		# EXM: EXtension Manager

		/** example.js */
		var exm = require('exm');
		var blueprint = {
		"hello" : ". http://example.com/hello"
		};

		exm(blueprint, function(err, result) {
		console.log( JSON.stringify(result) );
		});

		/** http://example.com/hello */
		{
		"name": "Gulliver",
		"title": "Mr.",
		"aliases", [ "Manfred", "Allen", "Bob" ]
		}

		/** result */
		{
		"hello" : {
		"name": "Gulliver",
		"title": "Mr.",
		"aliases", [ "Manfred", "Allen", "Bob" ]
		}
		}

		An extension/plugin manager for node.js.

		## Insert in place
		Using a variation on the dot-space notion, you can use _exm_ to inherit from external objects. When an object key is `"."`, the value is used as the external URL.

		/** blueprint */
		{
		"." : "http://example.com/hello"
		"title" : "Sgt.",
		"phone" : "301-555-1234"
		}

		/** result */
		{
		"name": "Gulliver",
		"title" : "Sgt.",
		"phone" : "301-555-1234",
		"aliases", [ "Manfred", "Allen", "Bob" ]
		}

		Notice that the value for inhertited field `title` was overridden, and the new field `phone` was added.

		Inserting in place can be used anywhere in the blueprint object.

		/** blueprint */
		{
		"foo" : "bar",
		"hello" : {
		"." : "http://example.com/hello"
		}
		}

		/** result */
		{
		"foo" : "bar",
		"hello" : {
		"name": "Gulliver",
		"title": "Mr."
		},
		"aliases", [ "Manfred", "Allen", "Bob" ]
		}

		## Arrays

		UNDER DEVELOPMENT

		Because order in array values is important, there are additional notions that allow you to control what

		{
		"hello" : [
		"..",
		"0..n",
		"0..2",
		". http://foobar"
		]
		}
