-There is a set of demo scripts in the :mod:`turtledemo` package. These
+The :mod:`turtledemo` package includes a set of demo scripts. These
scripts can be run and viewed using the supplied demo viewer as follows::
python -m turtledemo
The :mod:`turtledemo` package directory contains:
-- a set of 15 demo scripts demonstrating different features of the new module
- :mod:`turtle`;
-- a demo viewer :file:`__main__.py` which can be used to view the sourcecode
- of the scripts and run them at the same time. 14 of the examples can be
- accessed via the Examples menu; all of them can also be run standalone.
-- The example :mod:`turtledemo.two_canvases` demonstrates the simultaneous
- use of two canvases with the turtle module. Therefore it only can be run
- standalone.
-- There is a :file:`turtle.cfg` file in this directory, which serves as an
- example for how to write and use such files.
