They are located under:

share\gtk-2.0\demo

But none of them contains a main function, how can I make the following textscroll.c actually work:

/* Text Widget/Automatic scrolling
 *
 * This example demonstrates how to use the gravity of 
 * GtkTextMarks to keep a text view scrolled to the bottom
 * while appending text.
 */

#include <gtk/gtk.h>
#include "demo-common.h"

/* Scroll to the end of the buffer.
 */
static gboolean
scroll_to_end (GtkTextView *textview)
{
  GtkTextBuffer *buffer;
  GtkTextIter iter;
  GtkTextMark *mark;
  char *spaces;
  static int count;

  buffer = gtk_text_view_get_buffer (textview);

  /* Get "end" mark. It's located at the end of buffer because 
   * of right gravity
   */
  mark = gtk_text_buffer_get_mark (buffer, "end");
  gtk_text_buffer_get_iter_at_mark (buffer, &iter, mark);

  /* and insert some text at its position, the iter will be 
   * revalidated after insertion to point to the end of inserted text
   */
  spaces = g_strnfill (count++, ' ');
  gtk_text_buffer_insert (buffer, &iter, "\n", -1);
  gtk_text_buffer_insert (buffer, &iter, spaces, -1);
  gtk_text_buffer_insert (buffer, &iter,

                          -1);
  g_free (spaces);

  /* Now scroll the end mark onscreen.
   */
  gtk_text_view_scroll_mark_onscreen (textview, mark);

  /* Emulate typewriter behavior, shift to the left if we 
   * are far enough to the right.
   */
