Found closette-tests.lisp in the tests directory rather than Clos-tests.lisp .

I saw that the earlier PowerLisp by Roger Corman @rgcorman also mentioned a Clos test file in its manual so I download PowerLisp_2_02_sea.hqx from https://download.cnet.com/PowerLisp/3000-2247_4-2061.html . Inside that I found the file closette-tests.lisp in the examples and test directories.

The PowerLisp manual mentions clos-tests.lisp, as the Corman Lisp manual does, rather than closette-tests.lisp. So probably just an update of the manual to refer to closette-tests.lisp is needed.

I've extracted the code testing chapter 1 stuff into a separate file. I've made it emit text as a test rather than trying drawing as output (the original is just silent if no errors occur). This makes it easier tom play with after the lisp file is run in Corman Lisp using the menu <Lisp/Execute File...> option.

I attach the file here with extra .txt extension. Any comments welcome.

I'll keep working through closette-tests.lisp to make some playable learn-by-fiddling files.

So instead of
"The file clos-tests.lisp, included with Corman Lisp in the examples folder, contains most of the code samples from the book, and is useful for seeing how CLOS works.
"
it should probably read
"The file closette-tests.lisp, included with Corman Lisp in the examples folder, contains most of the code samples from the book, and is useful for seeing how CLOS works.
"
and closette-tests.lisp should be copied from the tests folder (that doesn't appear in the installed directories) to also be in the installed examples folder.

What do you think @arbv ?
