I would like to automate running virtualenv with a python script by:
opening gnome-terminal
cd to proper directory
run source /bin/activate
Why not just run /bin/activate directly from Python?
os.chdir("the/proper/directory")
os.system("/bin/activate")
Because "activate" needs to be sourced by the shell. It hacks the environment.
