+pythontex3.py.  It is intended for use with the default Python installation 
+on your system.  If you wish to use a different version of Python, you could 
+launch pythontex2.py or pythontex3.py directly.  You should also consider the 
+command-line option `--interpreter`.  This allows you to specify the command
+that is actually used to execute the code from your LaTeX documents.  Except 
+for Python console content, it doesn't matter which version of Python is used 
+to launch pythontex.py; pythontex.py just manages the execution of code from
+your LaTeX document.  The interpreter setting is what determines the version 
+under which your code is actually executed.
