Description
Using: nvm 0.31.0, node 5.9.1 & npm 4.2.0 on Mac OSX 10.12.3
Followed installation instructions, `npm install cab -g` runs without error. However, nothing is installed to `~/.nvm/versions/node/v5.9.1/bin` for cab, and only the `README.md` and `package.json` files get installed in `~/.nvm/versions/node/v5.9.1/lib/node_modues/cab`. Attempting to run cab from the project directory (`cab -p .`) gives `bash: cab: command not found`.
Contributor guide
Research direction
Start by comparing the installation instructions in README.md with the package.json metadata and the result of `npm install cab -g` under the reported nvm, Node, and npm versions. Confirm that the package installs the `cab` command into the expected bin directory and that `cab -p .` runs successfully from a project directory.
