Problems with the Windows section about django-twoscoops-project

[pydanny]

@jadient - thanks for this feedback! Things fixed:

• For the sample path, should be correct now.
• Code properly formatted
• Changed the title so it described what's intended (virtualenvwrapper on windows)
• For the unquoted code, as I'm not a windows user I don't know what it's supposed to say. Any advice?

[jadient]

I can give lots of advice once I understand what you're trying to do here ;-)

I found documentation on .pth files and it says the file should contain a list of paths. So I don't understand why you would put python code into a pth file.

The other thing I don't understand is why you would put the path of your project into the path for a virtualenv. unless you're suggesting a separate virtualenv for each project (I didn't see that in the book).

@jadient - honestly, I don't understand any of the Windows parts. That was submitted as a PR and I... ahem... accepted it blindly. If I'm not mistaken, that was taken directly from the virtualenvwrapper documentation, but I could very easily be mistaken/

[jadient]

Well I don't understand the Windows part either and I'm a Windows developer. My suggestion is to replace the whole Windows section with a TBD. In the meantime I will do some research to try to understand what this is all about.

@jadient Actually, what I would prefer is for you to submit pull requests so I can give full and proper attribution. Seriously, not only does this need your help, but it's really important to me that you get full credit for your effort. 👍

[jadient]

I will do that, but in the meantime can you replace the text with TBD? I don't need any credit for that ;-)

[jadient]

Thanks. Now let's go back to my earlier question:

The other thing I don't understand is why you would put the path of your project into the path for a virtualenv. unless you're suggesting a separate virtualenv for each project (I didn't see that in the book).

(That's not a windows question, since you perform that same step with add2virtualenv.)

After looking around, I think the answer to my previous question is: yes, you probably do want a separate virtualenv for each project.
