Examples

Trial includes a system with a variety of examples called trial-examples. After loading it, you can fire it up via trial-examples:launch which will show a menu where you can pick an example to run. You can also run a specific example directly by passing an initarg.

You can also download precompiled versions of Trial's examples as binaries from GitHub.
