The source code of various programs can be instructive. For example, if 
you download the ParaGUI tarball, there are sources for the test 
programs in the 'test' directory. Most of these are simple little apps, 
but can give you a good feel for ParaGUI. I am sure that you can 
probably find similar examples for pure SDL; I would try the sources of 
some of the programs here:
   http://www.libsdl.org/games.php

Also, what sort of troubles are you having wrt compiling the tutorials?

Eric
