Some tens of years ago (or the like ;) I found a very basic RichEdit
control for Delphi 1. Since Delphi 1 was for Windows 3.x where no system
RichEdit existed it was somewhat similar to what you're searching for.
I remeber it could evaluate and display some basic rich text attributes,
but I can't say if changing background was possible.
With some luck the contol can still be found on some Delphi component
site.
HTH,
Marc
