npm will install binaries to:
#{share_bin}
You may want to add this to your PATH.
npm will install libraries to:
#{node_lib}/.npm
To manually remove libraries installed by npm, delete this (hidden!) folder.
npm will also symlink libraries to:
#{node_lib}
You will want to add this to your NODE_PATH if you wish to
require libraries without a path.
