The difference between an example and a tutorial

Gah, trying to find decent Eclipse RCP tutorials is a painful, painful process. There’s a lot of articles out there, but very few actual tutorials. Currently GEF (the Graphical Editing Framework) is the particular part I’m interested in. Every “tutorial” for it I’ve come across somewhere has been nothing more than an overview of the concepts, a completed example you can download, and some notes on specific portions of the example.

I just want enough of the first steps that I can then start digging through examples and reference documentation. I’m not asking for a 30 hour lesson where you build a complete CAD application from scratch – just a simple example of going from nothing to displaying and editing a single shape on the screen is all I ask.
An editor for a Point object or something…Once I’m that far, then I’ll be able to figure out how everything else fits in.

One more thing: a Tutorial is not “In Depth” if the only form it exists in is as PowerPoint slides. If you’re going to publish PowerPoint slides instead of an actual article, at least have the decency to include a recording of your talk….gah!
