+The *target* parameter can contain template variables, like `{{package.version}}` and `{{package.name}}`, which will be replaced with values with values from your project's **package.json** file.
 
 Example:
-   - `copy-file build/app.js dist/app-v{{pkg.version}}.js`<br>
+   - `copy-file build/app.js dist/app-v{{package.version}}.js`<br>
    Creates a copy of **app.js** named something like **app-v1.2.3.js** based on the version of your project.
