I'm afraid you need to learn MFC.  To get started, try something like:

>>> import win32ui
>>> app = win32ui.GetApp()
>>> o=app.OpenDocumentFile("c:\\whatever\\filename")
>>> o
<pywin.framework.editor.color.coloreditor.SyntEditDocument instance at
0x0129EFD0>
>>>
o.GetEditorView().GetParent().GetParent().GetParent().MoveWindow((0,0,10,10)
)

Obviously lots of GetParent() calls - in the real world you would loop until
you hit a frame window.

Hope this helps,

Mark
