Hello, psychemedia.
Current version of Visual Python doesn't consider multiple environment with Python 2.7.
So some modification on file need to be done by manually.

Here's the code for searching pip3 command and change it as a default command.
You can replace the code you mentioned with suggested code(in the below).

v_pip=pip
which pip3 > /dev/null 2>&1 && v_pip=pip3

v_path1=`${v_pip} show visualpython | grep Location | awk -F': ' '{print $2}'`
v_prod='visualpython'
v_str1='jupyter nbextension'
v_str2='visualpython/src/main'
v_unst='${v_pip} uninstall '${v_prod}
v_upgr='${v_pip} install '${v_prod}' --upgrade'
#v_srch='${v_pip} search '${v_prod}
v_str3='${v_pip} list -o '
v_str4='${v_pip} show '${v_prod}

We will continuously improve Visual Python!
Thank you for reporting bug. :)

Thanks; I edited the file to use pip3 for my own purposes but the more general solution you suggest is better.

Just a note - your installation process is still broken. A user installing visualpython into a Mac environment (which has a default python2.7 installed and perhaps python paths reflecting that that are required for system functioning) and then trying to the visualpython command gets an error arising from trying to run the visualpython command on the command line.

I run doszens of applications successfully (many of them packaged for command line using using thinks like click so I'm not sure what you're doing in the distribution that causes broken command line usage?

Hello @psychemedia
Renewed batch file was not included on our current releases. We will include new batch file update on VP release ASAP.

After the update, maybe you have to uninstall visualpython using visualpy uninstall and then install with current version. We'll notice you the release through the comment soon.

Sorry for the late update for this issue.

HI - thanks... I tend do a clean/uninstall via pip when checking updates (the visualpy uninstall command errored too, IIRC?).

Great to see work continuing on this app:-)

@psychemedia
batch file/shell file for visualpy command is updated on the latest version 1.1.6. Thanks for your comment on command file, so we were able to fix it.
