Thanks a lot for your command line json viewer, I really appreciate the effort you put into! It would be really nice if the data would be reloaded (maybe with an optional flag --reload) when the input file changes. I've tried to achieve the same with tools like entr but I always end up with lots of errors, freezing UI (navigating the json is acting weird) and I've to kill the terminal.

The messages that are "spammed" when I try to quit jless, command started with echo context.json | entr -z jless context.json:

A reload keybinding would be great.
