Personally I started off by finding a full file I liked the look of (look and feel) don't worry about the kit it controls. try it out on the simulator.
Once you've found the layout just mucking about and changing stuff gives you an idea of how it all works and what you can achieve. Although I haven't used it myself Daniel Tonks layout is a very good one to use
Once you have your layout (or at least the basis for it) then most good files will have the codes in a separate device or devices where you can learn your IR codes etc without disturbing the layout
One thing to lookout for if using seperate code pages. When setting the device to use RF rather than IR this MUST be done on the device where your codes are stored
Although daunting at first I found a little trial and error and looking at several of other peoples files really gave me an understanding of how it all works.
I can thoroughly recommend a file called Rats Nest (its stored in the file area by the authors name which I can't remember right now, I'll edit when I know) Its nice and simple. It is a B&W file though, I can't remember what the 9500 is equivalent to.
Edit the file I like (its all personal taste obviously) is by Peter A. Kemmer
