Not pretty, and I've invoked jq twice:
Code:
$ paste -d= <(<<<"$JSON" jq 'keys | .[]') <(<<<"$JSON" jq .[])
"Element1"="file-123456"
"Element2"="Name, of, company written in, a very weird way"
"Element3"="path/to/some/file.txt"

I imagine this will be safe in an eval:
Code:
eval $(paste -d= <(<<<"$JSON" jq 'keys | .[]') <(<<<"$JSON" jq .[]))

Just checked - couldn't use it in an eval.

xsil2graphics

XSIL2GRAPHICS(1)					User Contributed Perl Documentation					  XSIL2GRAPHICS(1)

NAME

       xsil2graphics - generate scripts to load xsil output data files

SYNOPSIS

       xsil2graphics [options] <xsil_file>

DESCRIPTION

       Utility program bundled with xmds, used to generate scripts that load simulation output data into either matlab (http://www.mathworks.com)
       or scilab (http://www.scilab.org), which are then used to manipulate the results further if necessary and then to present the results
       graphically.

       Matlab

       To generate a matlab m-file, from the xsil file data_file.xsil use the command:

       bash$ xsil2graphics data_file.xsil

       or

       bash$ xsil2graphics --matlab data_file.xsil

       Then at the matlab command prompt:

       >> data_file

       Scilab

       To generate a scilab script file, from the xsil file data_file.xsil use the command:

       bash$ xsil2graphics --scilab data_file.xsil

       Then at the scilab command prompt:

       --> exec('data_file.sci')

OPTIONS

       -m, --matlab generate matlab m-file script to load data from the xsil data file (the default option)

       -s, -scilab generate scilab script file to load data from the xsil data file

       -o, --outfile <out_file> specify an alternative output script filename to the default which is the input xsil filename with the .xsil
       extension changed to either .m for the matlab m-file or .sci for the scilab script file

EXAMPLES

       bash$ xsil2graphics nlse.xsil

       Generates the output nlse.m to load the data into matlab

       bash$ xsil2graphics -m nlse.xsil

       Also generates the output nlse.m but explicitly sets matlab to be the output format

       bash$ xsil2graphics --scilab nlse.xsil

       Generates the output nlse.sci to load the data into scilab

       bash$ xsil2graphics --outfile nlse_new.m nlse.xsil

       Generates the output nlse_new.m to load the data into matlab
