NPM Install with local Links
Problem
When you have multiple similar projects, with alot of similar packages,
usual coming from a same boilerplate or yeoman generator.
Depending of package.json the installation of all packages could take while, installing many packages already installed before on the local machine with same version.
NPM and Bower already have the function link , that does exactly that.
The problem is... it are not designed for multiple packages or full cover.
Idea
Create a CLI node module that create npm link from all modules on a package.json.
And also install the non-linked dependencies and link the others.
It could save time and space.
Especially for heavy packages.
