Documentation

The zipimport example uses Python 2.3.

It should be updated, better if remove mention to version (I suppose)

I'd suggest using pip.pyz as the replacement example.

How about we completely remove the line or replace it with ...? It is not necessary for the example.

What and where exactly is this file?

@adorilson I think the referenced file is https://bootstrap.pypa.io/pip/pip.pyz. An MWE might be:

I don’t think you’ve seen the PR . It splits it into bash and py code blocks so we can use doctest
