I just installed RVM on Ubuntu 11.04,and I am comparing it with Python’s virtualenv.
When I activate virtualenv it changes the prompt (on my Ubuntu system), so I know exactly which environment is active in that terminal. RVM on the other hand does not seem to do that. RVM also does not seem to need any activation.
Am I missing something here, or is this the way rvm works by default ?
You need to do it by yourself:
more details here: https://rvm.io/workflow/prompt/
or you could build your own prompt like I do:
