How to compile Old Projects with Latest MBED

I'm trying to compile an old Mbed project. Initially it would not compile because it said it does not support Pip > 10.0. I upgraded mbed-cli. Now it is giving me an error saying Python 3 cannot compile Mbed OS 5.8 and earlier versions.

How do I tell mbed to compile using Python 2?

Hi Paul,

Have you already downloaded a 2.7 .* version of Python?

https://www.python.org/downloads/release/python-2715/

If you have, you can check your system $PATH to see if it's specifying 2.7.* version of Python. Hope this helps!
