Summary: "".translate() docs should mention string.maketrans()

Initial Comment:
The translate() documentation at
http://docs.python.org/lib/string-methods.html#l2h-268
should mention the string.maketrans helper function.

maketrans also mentions "regex.compile" - that should
probably be "re.compile" (although it's less readable).

re.compile should mention maketrans as well.
