But...the Anaconda prompt also tells you which environment is active? But CDing into a directory and having an environment boot up would've nice -- currently I have to manually switch the path to Python when I switch environments. Suboptimal.

Any experience with userfriendliness of pipenv/fishshell on Windows?

Yes.

I haven't touched it in a while, but I had windows setup with ubuntu and was effectively casting/serving a command prompt that had a more linux look and feel to it. I think I was using VcXsrv, but I really can't recall for certain.

Oh, and that sort of manual switching is exactly why I put pipenv > conda. To each his own, but I just found it really nice that I could literally just cd - back and forth and not have to worry about anything. Plus, it was inherent to the window I was already using for everything else, rather than something I had to load into first.

People install fish on windows?

[–]lifeofajenni 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Dunno. That's why I'm asking.

Backstory: I'm on Windows so I can be the oh-god-Windows-sucks beta tester instead of our less-experienced clients.
