Summary: string.capitlize() documentation

Initial Comment:
(Brought up on python-help)

The documentation for string.capitalize() says:

capitalize(word)
Capitalize the first character of the argument.

while it should really say what the documentation for
the corresponding string method says:

capitalize()
Return a copy of the string with only its first
character capitalized. 

since it makes the rest of the string lowercase.
