For the last month I have been slowly putting together a Python system to
extract metadata (mostly my long picture captions) from my online pictures
and store them in local TAB delimited CSV files.

These links summarize these adventures:

I've been using Jupyter and Python3 in the Anaconda environment mostly
because of Python's superb REST API requests library.  Anything that has
been downloaded voluntarily millions of times is probably fairly decent.

So when Eric released his python3 addon I thought. I will to try this.

I am happy to report that it works.  Once you make jbase.py and jcore.py
visible to Python3  and edit the usual paths to find J it comes up. I am
using a Win64 system.

I would suggest not using the from ctypes import * directive. This drags
all of ctypes into the root Python namespace.  It's like dumping J's z
locale into base. It would be safer and more robust to use namespace
qualified references, e.g. ctypes.c_void_p

This looks like it will be great little addon.

Cheers
