Changes and Improvements:

Error Checking:

  • Added mkdir -p $VENV_HOME to ensure the directory structure is created if it doesn't exist.
  • Added checks to ensure that the virtual environment exists before attempting to activate or remove it.

User Feedback:

  • Added feedback messages to inform the user about the creation and deletion of virtual environments.

Multiple Environment Deletion:

  • Enhanced rmvenv function to accept multiple arguments, allowing deletion of multiple virtual environments in a single command.
  • Added loop in rmvenv to iterate over all provided virtual environment names, checking for their existence and deleting them if they exist.

Deactivation Before Deletion:

  • Added logic to deactivate the currently active virtual environment if it is one of the environments being deleted.

Improved Comments:

  • Enhanced script comments for better clarity and understanding of usage.
