``.Net`` interpreter (i.e. ``mono`` command) is expected to be available
through the ``PATH`` variable.
+``Python_FIND_UNVERSIONED_NAMES``
+
+ .. versionadded:: 3.20
+
+ This variable defines how the generic names will be searched. Currently, it
+ only applies to the generic names of the interpreter, namely, ``python3`` or
+ ``python2`` and ``python``.
+ The ``Python_FIND_UNVERSIONED_NAMES`` variable can be set to one of the
+ following values:
+
+ * ``FIRST``: The generic names are searched before the more specialized ones
+ (such as ``python2.5`` for example).
+ * ``LAST``: The generic names are searched after the more specialized ones.
+ This is the default.
+ * ``NEVER``: The generic name are not searched at all.
