Has there been any official software that allows both the Python 2.x and 3.x releases to coexist on the same OS so that the end-user can easily switch between them when invoking Python scripts after each has been installed to their own directories/folders ?

I know of some unoffical solutions, but they require lots of tweaks. Given the vagaries of the different OSs on which Python can run I am hoping for some offical solution which will work on any of the most popular OSs ( Windows, Linux, Mac ).

The situation is so confusing on Windows, where the file associations, registry entries, and other internal software which allows a given Python release to work properly when invoking Python is so complicated, that I have given up on trying to install more than one Python release and finding a relaible, foolproof way of switching between them. So although I would like to use the latest 3.x series on Windows I have decide to stick with the latest 2.x series instead because much software using Python does not support 3.x yet.
