Update readmes, requirements, packagejsons, etc for all examples (#1452)

Most of the examples needed updates of Readmes to show how to run them. Some of the requirements.txt files had extra content that wasn't needed, or missing altogether. Apparently some folks like to run npm start
to run typescript, so a script was added to all typescript examples which
hadn't been done before.

Basically just a lot of cleanup.

+# Example Modelfile - Tweetwriter
+
+This simple examples shows what you can do without any code, simply relying on a Modelfile. The file has two instructions:
+
+1. FROM - The From instructions defines the parent model to use for this one. If you choose a model from the library, you can enter just the model name. For all other models, you need to specify the namespace as well. You could also use a local file. Just include the relative path to the converted, quantized model weights file. To learn more about creating that file, see the `import.md` file in the docs folder of this repository.
+2. SYSTEM - This defines the system prompt for the model and overrides the system prompt from the parent model.
+
+## Running the Example
+
+1. Create the model:
+
+   ```bash
+   ollama create tweetwriter
+   ```
+
+2. Enter a topic to generate a tweet about.
+3. Show the Modelfile in the REPL.
+
+   ```bash
+   /show modelfile
+   ```
+
+   Notice that the FROM and SYSTEM match what was in the file. But there is also a TEMPLATE and PARAMETER. These are inherited from the parent model.

 Both programs are basically the same, with a different prompt for each, demonstrating two different ideas. The key part of getting JSON out of a model is to state in the prompt or system prompt that it should respond using JSON, and specifying the `format` as `json` in the data body.

-ts-node ./mentors.ts "What is a Jackalope?"

+3. Ask a question:
+
+   ```bash
+   npm start "what is a jackalope"
+   ```
+
+You can also add your own character to be chosen at random when you ask a question.
+
+1. Make sure you have the right model installed:
+
+   ```bash
+   ollama pull stablebeluga2:70b-q4_K_M
+   ```
+  
+2. Create a new character:
+  
+   ```bash
+   npm run charactergen "Lorne Greene"
+   ```
+
+   You can choose any well-known person you like. This example will create `lornegreene/Modelfile`.
+
+3. Now you can create a model with this command:
+
+   ```bash
+   ollama create <YourNamespace>/lornegreene -f lornegreene/Modelfile
+   ```
+
+   `YourNamespace` is whatever name you set up when you signed up at [https://ollama.ai/signup](https://ollama.ai/signup).
+
+4. To add this to your mentors, you will have to update the code as follows. On line 8 of `mentors.ts`, add an object to the array, replacing `<YourNamespace>` with the namespace you used above.
+
+   ```bash
+   {ns: "<YourNamespace>", char: "Lorne Greene"}
+   ```
+
+## Review the Code
+
+There are two scripts you can run in this example. The first is the main script to ask the mentors a question. The other one lets you generate a character to add to the mentors. Both scripts are mostly about adjusting the prompts at each inference stage.
+
+### mentors.ts
+
+In the **main** function, it starts by generating a list of mentors. This chooses 3 from a list of interesting characters. Then we ask for a question, and then things get interesting. We set the prompt for each of the 3 mentors a little differently. And the 2nd and 3rd mentors see what the previous folks said. The other functions in mentors sets the prompts for each mentor.
+
+### character-generator.ts
+
+**Character Generator** simply customizes the prompt to build a character profile for any famous person. And most of the script is just tweaking the prompt. This uses Stable Beluga 2 70b parameters. The 70b models tend to do better writing a bio about a character than smaller models, and Stable Beluga seemed to do better than Llama 2. Since this is used at development time for the characters, it doesn't affect the runtime of asking the mentors for their input.
