Hi Marco,

Thank you for the information.

It's my habit to use the 2nd last stable release to have a more stable
environment.

Also, I personally believe not all libraries out there support Python 3.8
yet, but a majority of them does support Python 3.7.

As there is currently no option to set Python 3.7 as default for python3,
then I will hard code my script with #!/bin/env python3.7

Really hope the option is there.

Thank you.
