Does this .bashrc hack for for you maybe? :-)


## Toogle between python versions
python-toggle(){

    local RED="\e[0;31m"
    local GREEN="\e[0;32m"
    local RESET="\e[0;0m"

    test -z "$1" || v="$1"
    local bins=('python' 'python-config' 'pip')
    cd /usr/bin
    for bin in ${bins[@]}; do
        test -h $bin || {
            echo -e "${RED}ERROR:${RESET} cannot find $PWD/$bin"
            return 1
        }
    done
    echo -e ">> ${RED}Disabling $(python -V 2>&1)${RESET}\007"
    if [[ python -ef python3 || "python${v}" == "python3" ]]; then
        rm python python-config pip
        ln -s python2 python
        ln -s python2-config python-config
        ln -s pip2 pip
    elif [[ python -ef python2 || "python${v}" == "python2" ]]; then
        rm python python-config pip
        ln -s python3 python
        ln -s python3-config python-config
        ln -s pip3 pip
    else
        echo -e "${RED}ERROR:${RESET} cannot find link /usr/bin/$bin"
        cd - > /dev/null
        return 2
    fi
    echo -e ">> ${GREEN}Enabled $(python -V 2>&1)${RESET}\007"
    cd - > /dev/null
}
