Preparing virtualenvwrapper for Django 1.6 development

Hi everyone,

I am developing on a Windows 8.1 machine and wold like to setup virtualenvironment via virtualenvwrapper so as to have a properly set up Python development environment.

I am referring to Jeff Knupp's guide at http://www.jeffknupp.com/blog/2013/12/18/starting-a-django-16-project-the-right-way/

After installation of virtualenvwrapper via pip, the guide says:

"

After it's installed, add the following lines to your shell's start-up file (.zshrc, .bashrc, .profile, etc).

export WORKON_HOME=$HOME/.virtualenvs

export PROJECT_HOME=$HOME/directory-you-do-development-in

source /usr/local/bin/virtualenvwrapper.sh

"

My issue is, I do not understand what these lines are doing (I have a vague idea but assumptions can be deadly). Moreover, it is clear that the instructions were authored with a UNIX environment in mind.

Would anyone be so kind as to translate this to Windows speak, as well as perhaps pointing out what file this would go into in a Windows environment?

Thanks in advance :)

Kind regards,

Sithu.
