                  [--creator {builtin,cpython3-mac-framework,venv}] [--seeder {app-data,pip}] [--no-seed] [--activators comma_sep_list] [--clear] [--no-vcs-ignore] [--system-site-packages] [--symlinks | --copies]

                  [-h]
                  dest

optional arguments:
  --version                     display the version of the virtualenv package and its location, then exit
  --with-traceback              on failure also display the stacktrace internals of virtualenv (default: False)
  --read-only-app-data          use app data folder in read-only mode (write operations will fail with error) (default: False)
