FWIW, hex is much more common for displaying Unicode codepoints than
decimal is. So I'd print it like this (incorporating the 'not CAPITAL'
filter):
>>> for c in range(32, 0x110000):
... try:
... name = unicodedata.name(chr(c))
... except ValueError:
... continue
... if 'CAP' in name and 'CAPITAL' not in name:
... print("U+%04X %s" % (c, name))
...

Takes advantage of %04X giving a minimum, but not maximum, of four digits :)
