How to enable virtualenv bash in VTE?

[fightthepower]

I do coding in virtualenv and at present I access my virtualenv in VTE using virutalenvwrapper with the command workon ENV. Instead of this I want to directly load the virtualenv bash in VTE everytime I open geany. I know how to get the virtualenv's python but its the bash I am after.

I tried changing Edit > Preference > Terminal > Shell to workon ENV from /bin/bash which doesn't work. I also tried to source directly source ENV/bin/activate which also doesn't work. How do we enablel virtualenv bash in VTE?

The setting you used is correct, but its a path to an executable, not a command. So you need to set it to the correct path.

Actually it will accept arguments separated by spaces I think, but its still spawned directly, not run by a shell, since its being used as a shell.

I tried with spaces as well /bin/bash workon venv but didn't work

well that makes bash run the script called workon with one argument venv then exit, it doesn't run as an interactive shell.
