Re: 'r' history parameter documentation fix

That's really not clear, at least to me. But after the
actual documentation ("a filename extension is a `tt(.)'
followed by (...)") it has the extension "."

And this is exactly what the :r modifier does:
# test=foo. && print +$test:r+
+foo+


But then IMHO there's another subtle error in the ":e"
modifiers doc a few lines above:
"e    Remove all but the extension."

# test=foo. && print +$test:e+
++

Perhaps it should read "e   Leaves only the extension
but without the separating dot."
