Yes, but only one "word", thus -Es or -I.
We've often mused about whether it makes sense to have two Pythons on the
system. One for system scripts and another for users. System Python
('/usr/bin/spython' perhaps) would be locked down and only extensible by
system packages. On Debuntu that might mean no /usr/local on sys.path. It
would also have a much more limited set of installed packages, i.e. only those
needed to support system functionality.
/usr/bin/python2 and /usr/bin/python3 then would be user tools, with all the
goodness they currently have.
It's never gotten much farther than musings, but protecting the system against
the weird things people install would be a good thing. OTOH, this feels a lot
like virtual environments so maybe there's something useful to be mined there.
Cheers,
-Barry
