"yq" is likely to be the best tool for the job as it's a YAML-aware parser. So, for this, you'd do something like:   yq kg", "origin": "Country x"}' (Or, to edit the file in place do `yq -i resource.yaml "..."`) This takes advantage of the fact that YAML is a superset of JSON (i.e. any valid

Gregory, I support you on your decision, "Debian 12.7 with the Cinnamon desktop".  Cinnamon is very nice to use. Do you use "Synaptic Package Manager"? I recommend this program. I find it very useful for finding software packages. Using Synaptic I found all the programs you were asking about.
