For starters, you're looking at the documentation for ActivePython 2.2
rather than 2.5.

Do you know about pythons introspective abilities? That you can find a
list of available methods & objects by doing 'dir(win32ui)' in the
interpreter?

Having said that, here's how to get a PyCRichEditCtrl object:

ActivePython 2.5.1.1 (ActiveState Software Inc.) based on
Python 2.5.1 (r251:54863, May  1 2007, 17:47:05) [MSC v.1310 32 bit
(Intel)] on win32
Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.
>>> import win32ui
>>> rec = win32ui.CreateRichEditCtrl()
>>> type(rec)
<type 'PyCRichEditCtrl'>

It's worth noting that win32ui is basically just a wrapper around the
Microsoft Foundation Classes, so you'll need to look through the MFC
documentation rather than that of the wrapper.
