+ * @page ecore_event_example_01_c Handling events example
+ * This example shows the simplest possible way to register a handler for an
+ * ecore event, this way we can focus on the important aspects. The example will
+ * start the main loop and quit it when it receives the ECORE_EVENT_SIGNAL_EXIT
+ * event. This event is triggered by a SIGTERM(pressing ctrl+c).
+ *
+ * So let's start with the function we want called when we receive the event,
+ * instead of just stopping the main loop we'll also print a message, that's
+ * just so it's clear that it got called:
+ * @dontinclude ecore_event_example_01.c
+ * @skip static
+ * @until }
+ * @note We return ECORE_CALLBACK_DONE because we don't want any other handlers
+ * for this event to be called, the program is quitting after all.
+ *
+ * We then have our main function and the obligatory initialization of ecore:
+ * @until ecore_init
+ *
+ * We then get to the one line of our example that makes everything work, the
+ * registering of the callback:
+ * @until handler_add
+ * @note The @c NULL there is because there is no need to pass data to the
+ * callback.
+ *
+ * And the all that is left to do is start the main loop:
+ * @until }
+ *
+ * Full source code for this example: @ref ecore_event_example_01.c.
