i'd like to download the demo/turtle directory but i could not find
the correct link;

i need it to run the exampled cited in
http://docs.python.org/library/turtle.html

can you tell me where to find it ?
my version is 2.6.2
I believe the new turtle module should be installed as standard on 2.6.
So the example code should just work.

Which OS are you on? Some Linux versions of Python don't have Tkinter loaded
and that  will probably prevent turtle from running...
What happens when you try it? Do you get an error message?
the os is Xp;
the problem is simply i cannot find this directory  in my current
python installation folder ...

According to:    http://docs.python.org/library/turtle.html#demo-scripts,

the demo/turtle directory is in the *source* distribution. Many Windows users don't get the source distro, they just get the windows install package.

Go to http://www.python.org/ and on the left side, find the link labeled "source distribution" Click on it, and you should be able to download Python-2.6.2.tar.bz2 It's 10.6MB in size. And inside that tar.bz2 file, you'll find a directory Python-2.6.2\Demo\turtle
