MPL Py2 and Py3 working together?

Community matplotlib-users

Hello list,

I was wondering, if it was possible to have Py2 *and* Py3 versions of
MPL working on the same machine at the same time? I am asking because
I would like to make a switch to Py3 on all my work, but at the same
time I want to be able to run old scripts, which I might need in the
future.

Maybe somebody knows, if it is possible to do the same with IPython?

Thanks in advance,
Ignas A.

It's definitely possible. Each version of Python installed has its own set of Python packages, so it would just be a matter of installing matplotlib in both places.
