Python
======

Enables local Python package installation (see [PEP 370][1]) and
[_virtualenvwrapper_][2], if installed.

This module will prepend the per user site packages directory as defined in [PEP
370][1] to `$path` and `$manpath` so that you can run Python scripts and read
man pages installed into the per user site.

It also sources the [_virtualenvwrapper_][2] initialization script, if
[_virtualenvwrapper_][2] is installed and `$WORKON_HOME` is set.
[_virtualenvwrapper_][2] is a frontend to [_virtualenv_][3] which provides
convenient shell functions to create, switch and manage virtualenvs.
