oh i had no idea.. i found the activate file inside a folder name Scripts
(instead of bin) and and tried the same command, but now i get this error:
File "Scripts/activate", line 4
deactivate () {
^
SyntaxError: invalid syntax
i looked at the activate file which doesnt have an extension. the code is not
in python so im trying to figure out code i have no clue where its from. that
line where the error is contains the javascript like braces after functions {}
maybe thats it but it seems this tutorial doesnt want me to study it:(
Here is some of the code:
deactivate () {
unset pydoc
# reset old environment variables
if [ -n "$_OLD_VIRTUAL_PATH" ] ; then
PATH="$_OLD_VIRTUAL_PATH"
export PATH
unset _OLD_VIRTUAL_PATH
fi
if [ -n "$_OLD_VIRTUAL_PYTHONHOME" ] ; then
PYTHONHOME="$_OLD_VIRTUAL_PYTHONHOME"
export PYTHONHOME
unset _OLD_VIRTUAL_PYTHONHOME
what worries me is that it has comments, and on each comment this is already
there:
# This should detect bash and zsh, which have a hash command that must
# be called to get it to forget past commands. Without forgetting
# past commands the $PATH changes we made may not be respected
but it still doesnt explain the invalid syntax on line 4:(_______________________________________________
