Installation

Place create-py-project somewhere on your PATH. Then add the alias in .bash_aliases to the rest of your aliases (Usually found in ~/.bash_aliases). Finally, configure your shell again by either running source ~/.bashrc or by closing and reopening your shell window.

Usage

$ pyproject my-project-name

This will create a new directory for your project, create a virtualenv inside that directory, move into that directory, and activate the virtualenv. It also creates a sublime text project file that is preconfigured for Sublime Code Intel.
