RMAN 10G script examples

Question

Hi all,
I plan to start using RMAN soon. After doing a lot of reading, I have a pretty good feel for how it works and the syntax.
I'd appreciate getting some good example scripts that I can compare with mine. I realize I can compare with the DBA manual, but I'd rather see something that someone has been using successfully. Perhaps I'll use them as a starting point for my on RMAN scripts.
If it makes a difference, we are at RMAN 10G and our server is Windows 2003.
Thanks a bunch.
