pyenv is a command-line program that helps you control which flavor and version of Python you wish to use. This makes it really easy to switch from stock Python to conda to minipython to jython to pypy.  It also provides fine-grained control over version numbers for each flavor.

What is it

pyenv is a command-line program that helps you control which flavor and version of Python you wish to use. This makes it really easy to switch from stock Python to conda to minipython to jython to pypy. It also provides fine-grained control over version numbers for each flavor. 

$ pyenv install -l
