npm(1) -- node package manager
-==========================
+==============================
+
+## DESCRIPTION
npm is a little package manager for the Node javascript library.
+## Installing
+
+To install npm, do this:
+
+ make install
+
+If you get any complaints, try
+
+ sudo make install
+
+That will use npm to install itself, like
+[Ouroboros](http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ouroboros). From there, you can call
+the command line program `npm`, and read this file by doing `man npm`.
+
+Try `npm help` for more information.
