If you want script abc.py to run with python 2.3, and script xyz.py to run
with 2.5, how can you control this form the command line?

python abc.py

vs

python xyz.py?


One task I'm faced with is evaluating the benefits of migrating a huge
framework from 2.3 to 2.4?
I'd rather use two machines for this rather than install 2.4 on my 2.3machine.

If I need to make any changes in the scripts to work on 2.4, I don't want
that interfering with a fully-working 2.3 environment.
