    10 2. Install pip for Python3.

    30 5. Modify your .bashrc file by adding a row that will adjust every new virtual environment to use Python 3. We will point virtual environments to the directory we created above (.virtualenv) and we will also point to the locations of the virtualenv and virtualenvwrapper.
    31 Now open the .bashrc file using any editor(we use Vim).
    32 
    33 {{{
    34 vim .bashrc
    35 }}}
    36 
    37 6. Navigate to the bottom of the .bashrc file, press the letter i to enter the insert mode of Vim and add these rows:
    38 
    39 {{{
    40 #Virtualenvwrapper settings:
    41 export WORKON_HOME=$HOME/.virtualenvs
    42 VIRTUALENVWRAPPER_PYTHON=/usr/bin/python3
    43 . /usr/local/bin/virtualenvwrapper.sh
    44 }}}
    45 
    46 5. save and exit the Vim editor.
    47 6. Reload the bashrc script:
    48 
    49 {{{
    50 source ~/.bashrc
    51 }}}
    52
