Tcl/Tk 8.5 has not yet been released--it's still in alpha testing. Last 
I heard the target release date was next spring or summer.

I'm coming to Python from the Tcl/Tk world, and the limited testing of 
Tile (v. 0.7.2) and tablelist (0.4.2) that I've done works fine (this is 
with Python 2.4.2 and Tcl/Tk 8.4.10).
