Thank you for the patch, Yuly! You've made some good improvements to the current page. Because the current section is so old and out-of-sync with current practices (as you've noted in your changes) and with the nuances of Python on OS X, a more comprehensive restructuring is needed. I don't think that trying to refine the section interactively is going to be an efficient process but I will definitely use your suggested changes as a basis. I assume you have signed (or will be signing) the PSF contributor agreement. Thanks again! P.S. When submitting patches, don't forget to run patchcheck first (https://docs.python.org/devguide/patch.html#generation). It will detect and fix trailing whitespace in lines that would otherwise prevent a patch from being committed in the main cpython hg repo.
I'd like to help out with this issue if I can. This page in the documentation is really showing it's age now. * I think referring to "OS X" (soon to be "MacOS") instead of "Mac" or "Macintosh" would more accurate. * The opening paragraph of section 4.1 only refers to OS X 10.8, which was released over 4 years ago. * Is there any value in listing text editors in section 4.1.1? Editors frequently come-and-go. * I suspect a large number of Python 3 developers running OS X use http://brew.sh/ - would it be worth mentioning this somewhere?
According to the official tutorial on virtual environment, """ This will create the tutorial-env directory if it doesn’t exist, and also create directories inside it containing a copy of the Python interpreter, **the standard library**, and various supporting files. """ But according to PEP 405 and the actual behavior of venv, the standard library won't be copied. I'm not sure if I'm having a misunderstanding of this expression.
