+ If you want to use a custom directory for the virtualenv used by poezio,
+ you can use the ``$POEZIO_VENV`` environment variable to set use
+ another path (the default is :file:`poezio-venv`).
+
+ If your distribution does not have a ``pyvenv`` symlink to the latest
+ pyvenv available, you will need to set ``$POEZIO_VENV_COMMAND`` to it.
+ For example, if you have python 3.4, you will need to set it to
+ ``pyvenv-3.4`` instead.
