- Start a REPL (interactive shell), optionally with arguments supported by `python` (like `-c`, `-m`, etc.):
`py {{python_arguments}}`
- Execute a specific Python file:
`py {{path/to/file.py}}`
- Run specific Python version. If the version is missing, and `PYLAUNCHER_ALLOW_INSTALL` environment variable is set, auto-install via Microsoft Store or Winget:
`py {{-2|-3.7|...}}`
- List installed Python versions:
`py --list`
