Are there any up-to-date tutorials on using the Google directions API?

I can't seem to find any current tutorial showing how to display step-by-step automobile directions using the Google directions API. I'm sure I'm just missing it. Thank you.

Evgene, I had actually seen these earlier - but I don't believe either one demonstrates how step-by-step travel directions can be displayed. The first one seems to have a menu item for it, but I don't see actual directions being shown on the live demo (only the route on the map is shown). Am I missing something?

UDPATE: As discussed here...

... this tutorial works perfectly (as far as I can tell) by simply adding a panel as a standalone component (i.e. not trying to embed it into a grid). There may be a slight error in the tutorial's javascript as discussed there. Thanks Evgene, I am a happy camper.
