Have fun. :)

npm install -g lpm

lpm midi [/path/to/a/zip/file] lpm instrument [/path/to/a/zip/file] lpm effect [/path/to/a/zip/file]

• figure out http download with node, so far just accept local paths for zip files

• windows version

  • perhaps just adjust some paths on install.coffee will do the job

Should be simple and would be great if someone could contribute with that.

The next steps will depend on feedback and real life usage.

Everyone is more than welcome to suggest improvements to this system.

By the way,the initial idea was :

- fork npm repository
	-> add "device-type" property on package.json [midi|audio|effect]
	-> add 'device-file' property to package.json
	-> publish the max4live device as npm module
	-> add couple of extra command line options, i.e.:
		- npm install midi /path/to/package
		- npm install audio /path/to/package
		- npm install efx /path/to/package
	-> call it "lpm"

But... lets keep it simple and grow step by step ( :

Download the repo and have fun, pull requests are more than welcome.
