[Tutor] specifying my "default" python installation

I am not really familiar with BSD but *nix has the application 
update-alternatives. That will do what you want. Otherwise,
you could change the name/location in the bin directory.
It is likely that python is a symlink to python2.6 and all
you need to do is change the symlink to point to python3.2.
If no symlink is used you can rename the binaries instead.

Apologies in advanced if this is way off base.
