On FreeBSD, if MANPATH is set it is used verbatim; configuration
files are completely ignored. Therefore, setting MANPATH to (only)
the nvm man dir makes system man pages unreachable.
To get around this, before doing anything else to MANPATH, if it is
empty set it to the output of manpath(1).
One further complication: FreeBSD automatically adds a path to the
man pages path for each path in PATH that ends in "/bin", which
causes "~/.nvm/$VERSION/man" to be added. This interferes with the
subsequent substitution so strip this from MANPATH before the
substitution.
Using `cd` makes the nvm directory the number-one directory in `autojump`'s database---which is somewhat confusing since the user basically never `cd`s to it directly!---so here's an alternative method that doesn't use the `cd` command. I've checked it works in both Bash and Zsh.
Under certain network environments, due to poor implementation of file
download caches (immoral Chinese ISP), the direct download of Node.js
packages (http://nodejs.org/dist/node-$VERSION.tar.gz) will be
redirected to alternative urls using 302 redirections, which are not
handled by `curl --process-bar` by default. Instead, curl will "fail"
silently without creating any output file or error exitcode.
(Tested under Ubuntu 12.04 Desktop)
Fixed by adding "-L" switches to the curl commands responsible for
downloading the binary and source node.js packages.
The same fix as #207, just for fools like me who have `which` aliased to `type` in OS X. Without this escape, a very cryptic error message is emitted (though the install ultimately succeeds, as long as one actually has `curl` installed).
Fixes issues #232 and #244 where "nvm ls" returns inconsistent results depending on the number of node versions installed. This updated fix uses the find and sort commands only. Tested in bash v3.2.48 and v4.2.25, and zsh v4.3.11.
Fixes issue 232 that occurs in at least bash v4.2.25 where "nvm ls" returns "N/A" no matter how many versions of node have been installed. The fix uses a combination of the find, tr and basename commands instead of basename only. Tested in bash v3.2.48 and v4.2.25 and zsh v4.3.11.
