I'm afraid you're pretty much out of luck on full
documentation, Peter. Mark Hammond & Andy Robinson's
book (of several years ago) is still being published:
http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/tg/detail/-/1565926218?v=glance
and certainly contains quite a bit of information on
the subject.
The .chm which comes with the pywin32 extensions has
some information (although not much). Examples from
the python-win32 list and this mailing list plus
examples from around the web, plus finally the source
code itself are pretty much staple fare for people
working in the Win32 area under Python.
Obviously, what it needs is someone or someones with
the energy to get that Python Win32 wiki underway, but
at the moment all my energies are devoted elsewhere,
I'm afraid.
