Instead of keeping the activate script of a virtualenv created with venv on the bin folder, move the file or create a link to the root folder of the venv file. Even better if there´s a way to make it easier to make shell autocomplete faster. The rationale is that every time a virtualenv has to be activated, the path to the virtualenv has to be typed plus the bin folder and the activate script name. Having on the root folder of the virtualenv saves a few keystrokes, that compound to a lot of work when one is activating venvs all day. |

While I think this might have been a reasonable choice when this was first added, I think it's too late to change. We'd have to keep the files in bin (or Scripts) indefinitely because there are a zillion tutorials that talk about them. And having them in both places just leads to confusion. |

I agree with Eric. Thanks for the idea, Ivan, but I'm closing this as an idea we won't be pursuing. |
