GladeVCP and venv? was created by JetForMe
I've been working on my VCP outside of GladeVCP/LinuxCNC by creating a little scaffold.py GTK app to display my UI (I don't yet interface with the HAL so this was easy). I'm able to run in debug mode in VS Code and it speeds development.

Now I'm trying to integrate into my VCP (instead of launching scaffold.py), and I'm having some trouble getting gladevcp (or linuxcnc, for that matter) to respect my venv when they launch, which means it can't find my dependencies that I'm developing in conjunction with the VCP.

With my venv activated, I did
pip install -e ~/mymodule

which put a mymodule.egg-link file in the venv site-packages directory pointing to the local mymodule directory in my home dir.

Any idea what I can do to make this work?

I've used `update-alternatives` to make python3.11 the system-wide python, but gladevcp still launches python3.9. How is gladevcp finding python?

Ah! Linux filesystems are case-dependent, but macOS is (usually) not. So my import API statement was failing to find api.py when on Linux.

Still want to figure out how to run linuxcnc/gladevcp with a different python, though.
