With grateful thanks to Larry and his python script, we now have a windows executable to convert openscad routines to json files.

For those on windows that are interested, I have put the executable up on my odds & sods web page for download-

https://vk7krj.com/Odd_files/

In a cmd window, it's just-

 mkjson [your openscad module.scad] [your preferred output file name]

 using your .scad script as input and giving a name
(without extension) for the output file.

You do have to have python (I have used python 3.14.3) installed and in your windows path first.
