Automatically redirect to a specific Python 3 version's documentation
Google search results very often have links to Python 2 docs page. However, if you are programming in Python 3, switching to version 3 docs constantly may be pretty annoying. Same thing if you're not using the latest version of Python 3 and want to always see a specific version. This extension does that for you.

- (2020-02-15) Harold Martin: Thanks for this!
- (2019-11-29) Boris Verkhovskiy: Works well but is abandoned. There are some pages that were moved that it doesn't work for. For example https://docs.python.org/2/library/stringio.html to https://docs.python.org/3/library/io.html#io.StringIO. Someone contributed a fix on github, but the author isn't around to accept it. Must-have extension if you write Python.

- (2017-01-02) Stefan “gange” Gangefors: I'd like the option to chose which py3 version it redirects to. Otherwise it works fine.
- (2016-09-07) Chris Harrel: Perfect
- (2016-09-06) Jesús Gómez: Hace tiempo que deseaba algo como esto. Es muy fastidioso tener que cambiar la versión de 2 a 3 en la página de documentación siempre.
