I don't know if this is of use to anyone, but I attach a Powershell
module which does more or less what you're suggesting. It exports a
few functions, and an alias "pyx" (just to distinguish it from the
launcher, it could be renamed "py" if you prefer) which takes an -X.Y
version option similar to the launcher (and a -w option for selecting
the GUI version). All the remaining arguments are passed to Python.

You can also add your own aliases - "Add-Python dev ." is a good way
of adding a -dev flag to select the current development version you're
working on.

Hope it's useful to someone...

Paul.
