Can we determine whether or not removing the line breaks will change the output we generate for the man (ie. manual) pages?

| you can use `--production=false`. | ||

@claudiahdz I think the reason there were line breaks here was to keep the text column count short in a shell output... not sure if removing them will effect that negatively so that command line docs would span the length of the terminal 🤔

| Install a package under a custom alias. Allows multiple versions of a same-name package side-by-side, more convenient import names for packages with otherwise long ones and using git forks replacements or forked npm packages as replacements. Aliasing works only on your project and does not rename packages in transitive dependencies. Aliases should follow the naming conventions stated in [`validate-npm-package-name`](https://www.npmjs.com/package/validate-npm-package-name#naming-rules). |

with --save, would this install using the alias notation into package.json?

Yes, for example doing npm install jquery1@npm:jquery@1 will look like this on package.json:
"dependencies": {
"jquery1": "npm:jquery@^1.12.4"
}
You can also use the alias for npm related tasks, ex: npm uninstall jquery1.

Great! Should the docs be explicit about that?
