JMP Python Script Interface to point to Python installation different than JMP native folders

[#1]

Hello

I am looking to writing a script that sends data from a JMP table,  executes a python library, returns outputs back to JMP. 

Some of these libraries can be very strictly requiring a specific Python installation. Additionally, we certainly have an independent Python  installation (ie. local, and this is what I refer to as non-jmp python) . 

I am new to JMP python scripting and going through https://www.jmp.com/support/help/en/18.1/index.shtml#page/jmp/install-a-python-package.shtml# for basics but my question is around whether or not if the capability exists to direct JMP to folder different than native JMP installation for the preferred Python installation. If this capability exists, is it possible to post a starting JMP Python script example ? 

thanks

Prior to JMP 18, you could point JMP to a specific Python installation and have it run that.  To do that in JMP 18 or higher, I think you would have to use Run Program(), which doesn't seem ideal.
