You don't need virtualenv to run different versions of Python on one computer, just specify which interpreter you want to use to run a script. By default virtualenv copies your site-packages directory to each virtual environment, that is probably the bulk of the 2.3 MB. Disable the copy with the --no-site-packages option. Of course you will then have to install any needed modules yourself. http://pypi.python.org/pypi/virtualenv#the-no-site-packages-option Kent _______________________________________________ Tutor maillist - [email protected] http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/tutor
