i don't think so.
Tk includes "widget - Demonstration of Perl/Tk widgets"
and you can mimick what it does, and create `primademo' for example.

It's tons better than what you do right now.

Because the pod is so sparse in some modules, i think the examples should be installed someplace.
Let's go with that Tk idea.
install the examples in

    $Config{sitelib}/Prima/examples

and have primademo installed in $Config{bin} or $Config{sitebin}
(basically, wherever ExtUtils::MakeMaker would install it)
