* library/tcltest1.0/tcltest2.tcl:
* tests/tcltest2.test
* doc/tcltest2.n: Code and documentation cleanup. Modified
-verbose to take list of keywords as well as string of letters.
Removed Tcl version information from tcltest. Removed
tcltest::grep from tcltest package. Added optional 3rd directory
argument to makeFile/makeDirectory and removeFile/removeDirectory.
* tests/basic.test: Changed references to tcltest::tclVersion to
hardcoded numbers.
* generic/tcl.h: Changed reference to tcltest2.tcl and tcltest.tcl
in comments to tests/basic.test.
