Example
var DS = require("ds").DS
// if no argument, "./ds.json" is used
// constructore calls load()
var ds = new DS("./ds.json")
ds.one = 1
ds.a = [1,2,"foo"]
ds.o = {bar:"baz", qux:42}
ds.save() // data (all of it) written to ./ds.json
ds.clear() // all data erased
API
load(path) // load JSON data from file into memory
// if path not provided, path provided to constructor is used
