Setting default version among multiple python installations

[Karthik]

Hello,

I am an absolute linux and python newbie. The linux machine(red hat 
version 7.2) that i managed to get my hands on had python 1.5(vintage 
stuff, i guess) in it. I have installed python 2.5 using the source tar. 
However, when i try to access python, i am taken to the older version only.

How do i set python2.5 as the default version?
