The relevant bits for Python here are the major improvements in Tk,
specifically native themed widgets for full platform integration on
Windows and OS X and improved appearance under X11, additonal widgets
such as a combobox and treeview, a faster, smoother text widget,
anti-aliased font rendering under X11 and an improved font engine under
OS X (ATUSI), and more.
I've been giving 8.5 a test run in my own Tkinter application under OS
X, and the improvements are pretty dramatic, especially with the
addition of themed widgets. It's definitely worth checking out!
