Usage
-----

Insert the lines

.. code-block:: python

   import sys
   import subprocess

   try:
       import berhoel.cmd_line_history
   except ImportError:
       # checking if python is running under virtualenv of venv
       is_venv = (
           # This handles PEP 405 compliant virtual environments.
           (sys.prefix != getattr(sys, "base_prefix", sys.prefix))
           or
           # This handles virtual environments created with pypa's virtualenv.
           hasattr(sys, "real_prefix")
       )

       subprocess.check_call(
           [sys.executable, "-m", "pip", "install"]
           + ([] if is_venv else ["--user"])
           + ["pyCmdlineHistory",]
       )

to “~/.pystartup” file, and set an environment variable to point to it:

.. code-block:: shell

   export PYTHONSTARTUP=${HOME}/.pystartup

in bash.

This will locally install the module for each python you are calling.
