Activation with nushell

[esafak]

Is it possible to make it so that you can activate with nushell the same way as with the others, like source .venv/bin/activate.nu instead of the abstruse overlay use activate.nu, which only a person who reads the script will know?

Alternatively, would anyone object if we added a warning to the script indicating the proper way to activate?

This is a question for nushell itself.

Alternatively, would anyone object if we added a warning to the script indicating the proper way to activate?

How would this work and where would you add it?

[esafak]

Simply to activate.nu. It could exit with a warning if you use source, instead of misleadingly proceeding. And work properly with overlay use.
