Public bug reported:

Winpdb supports Python 3, but its main interface is not yet compatible
with Python 3. However, the included remote debugger, rpdb2, _is_. One
can debug a Python 3 program by running rpdb2 with python3, then
attaching to that process from winpdb, but this is tedious and clumsy.
(First, we have to create a link to /usr/lib/python2.7/dist-
packages/rpdb2.py from /usr/lib/python3/dist-packages, then we have to
run python3 /usr/bin/rpdb2 with the necessary command line).

It would be very helpful to provide built in Python 3 support in some
fashion. An additional rpdb2-python3 launcher (with the necessary
symlinks) would help a lot, and a flag for winpdb that causes it to use
that launcher itself would be perfect.
