Description of your problem

The executable name keeps changing between versions, requiring me to change my shortcut and relearn command line command.

What steps will reproduce the problem?

  1. pip install spyder==3.2.0
  2. find executable in C:\Python36\Scripts\spyder.exe
  3. pip install spyder==3.2.1
  4. find executable in C:\Python36\Scripts\spyder3.exe
  5. pip install spyder==3.2.2
  6. find executable in C:\Python36\Scripts\spyder.exe

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
Always use spyder on Python 2 and spyder3 on Python 3.

Please provide any additional information below
The entry_point is different for Python 2 and Python 3. But the wheels are universal. I assume different versions of Python have been used for creating the PyPI wheels.

You're totally right, thanks for pointing it out.

This means we have to stop creating universal wheels.
