How to run two versions of Bibledit simultanously?

From Bibledit

As there are some drastic changes between version, it would be helpful to have two different versions running of Bibledit.

This is possible, but not recommended for production work, as they will be overwriting each other's configuration. Yet it is possible.

Install the newer version according to the instructions.

When installing the older version, do this:

./configure --prefix=/home/joe/older
make
sudo make install

Then to run the older version, type this:

/home/joe/older/bin/bibledit

Joe stands for the user's name.
