Subject of the issue

jsonext must currently be specified as grunt dev --jsonext=txt

adapt_framework/GRUNT.md

Line 17 in 9dce12c

`--jsonext` Specifies the file extension your JSON files use. Defaults to *json*. If the server your content is hosted on doesn't support the JSON mime-type you can use *txt* here to use the .txt file extension instead. You will need to manually amend the extension of all your JSON files to .txt initially.

It would be good to be able to add it to adapt.json as:

{
  "jsonext": "txt"
}

As with some of the other properties:

adapt_framework/grunt/helpers.js
