WipeModules: A new CLI tool to free up space by wiping old node_modules folders

My method is considerably more primitive but works well enough. It's disturbing how long this process can take after a few npm installs.
function nmpurge --description 'Recursively delete all node_modules folders' --argument target
if test -z "$target"
echo "Specify a directory to clean"
return 1
end
find "$target" -name "node_modules" -type d -prune -exec rm -rf '{}' +
endI wrote wipe-modules to be more precise at the moment of wiping out node_modules, I will add more features soon! :)
