The annotated examples of RwxWidgets (http://www.omegahat.org/RwxWidgets/ExampleDocuments/) and the tcltk examples of James Wettenhall (http://bioinf.wehi.edu.au/~wettenhall/RTclTkExamples/) were personally very instructive for writing gWidgetsRwxWidgets and gWidgetstcltk. In addition the demos of Michael Lawrence in the RGtk2 package proved very useful. The following collection of examples illustrating some basic uses of gWidgets aims to provide a similar resource. That is, some short practical examples that can easily be modified to begin writing GUIs. The vignette that accompanies the gWidgets package has some longer examples. If you find these instructive, and have ideas for other short examples, please pass that along.
These were tested primarily against RGtk2 (a few require version 0.0-24 or greater) and not the other toolkits. Their mileage may vary.
