Not quite. It basically amounts to a UNIX version of xcopy'ing an existing Python installation. ... install Python X.Y by any means python virtualenv.py -p=X.Y whereToStoreFiles # clone existing Python X.Y install python virtualenv.py --relocatable whereToStoreFiles # make xcopy/ tar friendly . whereToStoreFiles/bin/activate python file.py args # run using whereToStoreFiles/bin/python cloned by above ... rinse and repeat for each X.Y versus . ./path/to/rvm/script rvm install 1.8.7,1.9.2,rbx # fetch and install Ruby 1.8.7, 1.9.2, and Rubinius in rvm root rvm 1.9.2 some-ruby-command args # run using Ruby 1.9.2. rvm 1.8.7 some-other-rbcmd args # run using Ruby 1.8.7 rvm --default rbx # set default ruby for this shell ruby file.rb args # use rubininus as ruby ruby system # use systems ruby instead ruby file.rb args # ^ -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
