Using globally installed modules in node-webkit

[Andy Green]

Is there currently any way to use globally installed npm modules in node-webkit? I know that it's possible to use modules by copying the node_modules folder into a node_webkit app's folder, but I still haven't found out how to use globally installed modules.

currently node-webkit looks up $HOME/.node_modules,
$HOME/.node_libraries but not $PREFIX/lib/node_modules

We'll fix this. Before that you can create symlinks to
$PREFIX/lib/node_modules in the applications directory.
