How to recursively generate .pyc files under Ubuntu and Python3.

How to recursively generate .pyc files under Ubuntu and Python3.

In python2 there is a simple way to recursively generate the .pyc files under a folder, which is 

python -m compileall <pythonic-project-name>

But under python3, if you run the same command you get all the .pyc files under the __pycache__ folders under the project folder. You can enforce the same layout of .pyc files in the folders as in Python2 by using: 

python3 -m compileall -b <pythonic-project-name>

The option -b triggers the output of .pyc files to their legacy-locations (i.e. the same as in Python2).
