yeah, I'm giving up somewhat by stuffing a bunch of things in
here. But at least they're in the manual now; it's easier to
move them around in the manual once they're already here.
Besides, if users complain about everything stuffed in here, I
can ask them for specific instructions about where to move these
examples, and that might get them more involved in the docs. -gp
