The Tile module adds support for the platform-native themed widgets now
available in Tk 8.5's core (ttk:: namespace in Tk terms). The module
also supports the ttk:: namespace for Tk 8.4 if a separate Tk extension
is installed. Adding this module to the core lib-tk library will make it
simple for Tkinter developers to access the improved, modern widget set
now available.
The module was originally developed by Martin Franklin. I have updated
and maintained it for the past two years. Martin Franklin has granted me
permission to submit it for inclusion in the lib-tk core; documentation
available on request.

Is this complete ? I see several methods with just a pass, where the
docstring says it returns a dict, for example.

Kevin, is this all your code (the comment seems to suggest otherwise).
Can all authors fill out contributor agreements?

No, it is not all my code. I will contact Martin Franklin about filling
out contributors agreement.

I would like to close this feature request in favor of http://bugs.python.org/issue2983. That project achieves the same goal as
this code submission in a more comprehensive, better-documented fashion.
