[issue26664] find a bug in activate.fish of venv of cpython3.6

[Vinay Sajip]

Vinay Sajip added the comment:

The change you mention was in response to Issue #26348. The patch supplied there introduced the $ characters you say aren't required. I'm not a fish user, but it would seem that "$__VENV_PROMPT__" would resolve to the *value* of the environment variable __VENV_PROMPT__, whereas "__VENV_PROMPT__" would just resolve to the literal string "__VENV_PROMPT__" which doesn't seem like what is wanted. Can you explain the reasoning by which you assert that the $ isn't wanted?
