No, there is no C equivalent for VBoxManage. Would be a waste of time. VBoxManage is quite huge, so is much further away from "smaller more digestable examples" than the C API sample... VBoxManage does cover all API functionality, so it definitely can serve as clarification if the SDK documentation (either look at the included PDF file or https://www.virtualbox.org/sdkref/ ) isn't answering your question.
