Don't expect these tiny programs to tell anyone very much about the
power of a language.

Slowly we have been renovating some of the original tests, and as we do
so they are deprecated and then only shown on "The Doug Bagley" pages.

Now fasta, knucleotide, reverse-complement do hashtable and ascii
strings - spellcheck and word-frequency seem somewhat redundant.

We don't have any unicode tests yet...
