26You may of course also pipe the output of \fBnpm completion\fR to a file such as \fB/usr/local/etc/bash_completion.d/npm\fR or \fB/etc/bash_completion.d/npm\fR if you have a system that will read that file for you.
27.P
28When \fBCOMP_CWORD\fR, \fBCOMP_LINE\fR, and \fBCOMP_POINT\fR are defined in the environment, \fBnpm completion\fR acts in "plumbing mode", and outputs completions based on the arguments.
