 This installs the function \function{_} in Python's builtin namespace,
 based on \var{domain}, \var{localedir}, and \var{codeset} which are
 passed to the function \function{translation()}.  The \var{unicode}
 flag is passed to the resulting translation object's \method{install}
 method.
 
+For the \var{names} parameter, please see the description of the
+translation object's \method{install} method.

 As seen below, you usually mark the strings in your application that are
 candidates for translation, by wrapping them in a call to the
 \function{_()} function, like this:

 If the \var{unicode} flag is false, this method installs
 \method{self.gettext()} into the built-in namespace, binding it to
 \samp{_}.  If \var{unicode} is true, it binds \method{self.ugettext()}
 instead.  By default, \var{unicode} is false.
 
+If the \var{names} parameter is given, it must be a sequence containing
+the names of functions you want to install in the builtin namespace in
+addition to \function{_()}. Supported names are \code{'gettext'} (bound
+to \method{self.gettext()} or \method{self.ugettext()} according to the

+or \method{self.ungettext()} according to the \var{unicode} flag),
