Usage:

npm install        install all the dependencies in your project
npm install <foo>  add the <foo> dependency to your project
npm test           run this project's tests
npm run <foo>      run the script named <foo>
npm <command> -h   quick help on <command>
npm -l             display usage info for all commands
npm help <term>    search for help on <term>${usesBrowser}
npm help npm       more involved overview${usesBrowser}

All commands:
${allCommands(npm)}

Specify configs in the ini-formatted file:
    ${npm.config.get('userconfig')}
or on the command line via: npm <command> --key=value

More configuration info: npm help config
