## Description ##
npm-dview is a command line tool for comparing a package.json file's dependency version
numbers with the latest remote version number.
It compares both "dependencies" and/or "devDependencies".
It accomplishes this by calling "npm view MODULE_NAME version" for each dependency listed
in your package.json file.
## Installation ##
Install the command line tool globally by running:
npm install -g npm-dview
