 ## Virtual environments
 
-The plugin provides two utilities to manage Python venvs:
+The plugin provides three utilities to manage Python 3.3+ [venv](https://docs.python.org/3/library/venv.html)
+virtual environments:
 
-- `mkv [name]`: make a new virtual environment called `name` (default: `venv`) in current directory.
+- `mkv [name]`: make a new virtual environment called `name` (default: if set `$PYTHON_VENV_NAME`, else
+  `venv`) in the current directory.
 
-- `vrun [name]`: activate virtual environment called `name` (default: `venv`) in current directory.
+- `vrun [name]`: Activate the virtual environment called `name` (default: if set `$PYTHON_VENV_NAME`, else
+  `venv`) in the current directory.
+
+- `auto_vrun`: Automatically activate the venv virtual environment when entering a directory containing
+  `<venv-name>/bin/activate`, and automatically deactivate it when navigating out of it (including
+  subdirectories!).
+  - To enable the feature, set `export PYTHON_AUTO_VRUN=true` before sourcing oh-my-zsh.
+  - The default virtual environment name is `venv`. To use a different name, set
+    `export PYTHON_VENV_NAME=<venv-name>`. For example: `export PYTHON_VENV_NAME=".venv"`
