Mark Hammond wrote a book on using Python with Win32. Google has lots
of information about it. In large part, however, you are expected to be
pretty comfortable with the Win32 API, and if you are, then figuring out
the Python translations isn't that hard.
In the meantime can use win32api.FindWindow. The "edit" within Notepad
had control ID 0x0f. So, start up an empty Notepad. Then:
import win32gui
import win32con
notepad = win32gui.FindWindow( None, "Untitled - Notepad" )
npedit = win32gui.GetDlgItem( notepad, 0x000f )
win32gui.SendMessage( npedit, win32con.WM_SETTEXT, 0, "Testing" )
