-    files : list(paths or URLs) or dict(install_name: path or URL)
-        One or more paths or URLs to existing files directories to install.
-        If given as a list, these will be installed with their base name, so '/path/to/foo'
-        will install to 'nbextensions/foo'.  If given as a dict, such as {'bar': '/path/to/foo'},
-        then '/path/to/foo' will install to 'nbextensions/bar'.

+        By default, the file will be installed with its base name, so '/path/to/foo'
+        will install to 'nbextensions/foo'. See the destination argument below to change this.
         Archives (zip or tarballs) will be extracted into the nbextensions directory.
     overwrite : bool [default: False]
         If True, always install the files, regardless of what may already be installed.
