Does it support installing packages globally and then having them actually be available, without having to install them locally as well? This is my biggest bug

This is my biggest bugbear with npm, as it pretty much rules out doing shell scripting with node.
- tracker1 11y agoIf you keep node in ~/bin/, you could symlink your global npm path to ~/bin/node_modules/ .. just a thought here.
- tracker1 11y agoI mean if you keep your shell scripts in ~/bin/ (which is where I happen to keep mine)... I use straight bash scripts most of the time, but it's usually easiest for me to use node/js since my environment already has it than it is for me to try to remember perl, learn python or use something else.
