Xonsh Stuff

Xonsh is basically a terminal for python which is super cool but even better because you can literally also do bash commands inside it.

Begin by simply typing xonsh into the terminal.

Setting up an environment

There is entirely no need for conda here as it can be done with a simple vox command:

1. Load the xontrig by typing:

xontrib load vox

2. Create a new environment:

vox new world1

3. List any existing or activate the environment:

$ vox list
Available environments:
    eggs
    world1
    spam

$ vox activate world1
 Activated "world1".

4. More info found here such as: Exit or remove the environment
