Yes, Scite is an excellent editor for Windows or Linux, but PyScripter
[http://mmm-experts.com/Products.aspx?ProductID=4]
offers more, including call completion and call tips.

It's true that call completion is advertised with SciTE but I have
not been able to use it with Windows.

Also, don't overlook IDLE, the IDE that ships with python. I use it in my work every day. Once every three months or so I invest a day in looking for a better free python IDE/editor, and still after 3 years or so, I still haven't found anyhing that beats it.

Good luck!
