[Paraview] Multiple versions of ParaView on same computer; how do I choose one?

[Ufuk Utku Turuncoglu (BE)]

Are they installed in different folders? If yes, you could set PATH 
environment variable to point the directory that has paraview command. 
If you looking for a system wide solution then you could create small 
shell script under /etc/profile.d (for CentOS but it must be similar in 
Ubuntu) to automatically set PATH environment variable.
