Alternative implementation of Python virtual environments.

As command:         localpyenv.py [options] directory
As Python module:   python -m localpyenv [options] directory

Options:
  -h, --help            show this help message and exit
  -s, --system-site-packages
                        Make system site packages available.
  -u, --user-site-packages
                        Make user site packages available.

Place the script localpyenv.py either into a directory of the PATH or into one directory of Python's path.

1. Initialize the environment

   localpyenv.py -s myenv

2. Link files from the used parent installation

   myenv/bin/create_environment.sh

In order to us a Python environment, source its activate script

source myenv/bin/activate.sh

After the use, deactivate the environment

deactivate

Developed in order to implement a few things in a different way than in virtualenv.

• Make user site packages available
• Allow recursive environments
• Use the "site.py" coming with Python 2.7

• Different system site packages on platform 'darwin' appear with and without virtualenv

• Creates environments for Anaconda
