[python] What's the proper way to install pip, virtualenv, and distribute for Python?

Here is a nice way to install virtualenvwrapper(update of this).

Download virtualenv-1.11.4 (you can find latest at here), Unzip it, open terminal

# Create a bootstrapenv and activate it:
$ cd ~
$ python <path to unzipped folder>/virtualenv.py bootstrapenv
$ source bootstrapenv/bin/activate

# Install virtualenvwrapper:
$ pip install virtualenvwrapper
$ mkdir -p ~/bootstrapenv/Envs

# append it to file `.bashrc`
$ vi ~/.bashrc
  source ~/bootstrapenv/bin/activate
  export WORKON_HOME=~/bootstrapenv/Envs
  source ~/bootstrapenv/bin/virtualenvwrapper.sh

# run it now.
$ source ~/.bashrc

That is it, now you can use mkvirtualenv env1, lsvirtualenv ..etc

Note: you can delete virtualenv-1.11.4 and virtualenv-1.11.4.zip from Downloads folders.
