I am making a script that need to be compatible both with Windows (with WinPython) and Linux. In Linux python command is python3. Can I just copy python.exe to python3.exe and will it work normally?

I mean, it won't work differently than calling python.exe

the code to handle something else then "python.exe" in Winpython itself, like "pypy3.exe", is perhaps a little broken, but I presume that's not your use case.

Currently I need only python3 and pip3 commands.

Thanks for your answers.
