Ok, I found scintilla.dll in the directory above scintillacon.py, but it
came with pywin32, so it *should* be the correct one.
DLL inspector says it's a 64-bit, which is correct for my os.
I copy that dll, and indeed, all binaries in that directory (just to be
sure) into my program directory and it still does not work!
Yet, the program Pythonwin.exe in that directory works fine and does its
syntax highlighting with scintilla.dll.
I have no idea what could be wrong. Oh! To know what that little %1 means!

"... not a valid Win32 application" sounds like a 32/64-bit issue to
me. The 32/64-bit version of python you're running: does it match the
DLLs?

Hey all,
I recently noticed that pythonwin comes with a scintilla wrapper.
Seems USEFUL! so I decided to (scientifically) try poking it with a
stick to see what it does.

I didn't get too far, for when I do:
from scintilla import scintillacon
I get:
ImportError: DLL load failed: %1 is not a valid Win32 application.
Presumably this means there's a dll it can't find? Unfortunately the
%1 is not replaced with what it's looking for. (If there's not a bug
out on this somewhere, there probably should be.) That's not the
point though. Point is: what are we looking for?
Thanks,
-Kurt
