DESCRIPTION

       The  virtualenv  utility  creates  virtual  Python instances, each invokable  with its own
       Python executable.  Each instance can have different  sets  of  modules,  installable  via
       easy_install.  Virtual Python instances can  also be created without root access.

   optional arguments:
       --version
              display the version of the virtualenv package and it's location, then exit

       --with-traceback
              on failure also display the stacktrace internals of virtualenv (default: False)

       --app-data APP_DATA
