Python
======
Enables local Python package installation.
Local Package Installation
--------------------------
Since version 2.6, Python supports per user package installation, as defined in
[PEP 370][1].
This module prepends per user site directories to the relevant path variables
to enable the execution of user installed scripts and the reading of
documentation.
### Usage
Install packages into the per user site directory with `easy_install --user` or
`pip install --user`.
virtualenvwrapper
-----------------
[virtualenvwrapper][2] is a frontend to the popular [virtualenv][3] utility.
virtualenv creates isolated Python environments and virtualenvwrapper provides
convenient shell functions to create, switch, and manage them.
### Usage
Install virtualenvwrapper and set [`$WORKON_HOME`][4] to the path where virtual
environments will be stored.
Aliases
