No configurations support (or undocumentd) aka py.ini #270
While official Python documentation mentions where py.ini can be loaded from and what you can configure inside, the unix python-launcher does not see to have any support for it, or lacks documentation.
I reached this while trying to configure py on macos to prefer using the latest release of python instead of using the latest pre-release (which obviously does not work with most tools).
I created a py.ini in user home with expected config but it was not loaded. Should I assume that python-launcher already knowns to use XDG standard. (XDG_CONFIG_HOME) and look for confing in ~/.config/py.ini or similar? I tried to run with verbose mode but apparently --list does not even accept that argument.
$ py --list -vv
The `--list` flag must be specified on its own; see `py --help` for details
FAIL: 64
Later I found that export PYLAUNCH_DEBUG=1 added some extra debugging info and I attempted to trick py to default to another version of python using the documented environment variables:
export PY_PYTHON=3.11
export PY_PYTHON3=3.11
While this works, I still think that lack of config file support is a bug, probably the missing -v too.
