-.SH "DESCRIPTION"
-Package linking is a two\-step process\.
-.
-.P
-Without parameters, link will create a globally\-installed
-symbolic link from \fBprefix/package\-name\fR to the current folder\.
-.
-.P
-With a parameters, link will create a symlink from the local \fBnode_modules\fR
-folder to the global symlink\.
-.
-.P
-When creating tarballs for \fBnpm publish\fR, the linked packages are
-"snapshotted" to their current state by resolving the symbolic links\.
-.
-.P
-This is
-handy for installing your own stuff, so that you can work on it and test it
-iteratively without having to continually rebuild\.
-.
-.P
-For example:
-.
-.IP "" 4
-.
-.nf
-npm\.commands\.link(cb) # creates global link from the cwd
- # (say redis package)
-npm\.commands\.link(\'redis\', cb) # link\-install the package
-.
-.fi
-.
-.IP "" 0
-.
-.P
-Now, any changes to the redis package will be reflected in
-the package in the current working directory
