Sure - there's a similar one at

The main purpose of the script was to illustrate how to subclass venv.EnvBuilder,
and I've added it as an example to the 3.3 and in-development documentation:

http://docs.python.org/3/library/venv.html#an-example-of-extending-envbuilder

Doing it in Python means that it runs cross-platform, offers a few benefits
such as command line help, or the option to install Distribute but not pip.
