Most of the methods and events that apply to a Textfield also apply to Win32::GUI::RichEdit.
Note that in order for most events to be triggered you must call the
SetEventMask() method, to set the events that you want to be triggered.
See SetEventMask().
By default Win32::GUI::RichEdit uses Rich Edit 1.0.
Common methods apply to most windows, controls and resources.
new(PARENT, %OPTIONS)

can also be called as PARENT->AddRichEdit(%OPTIONS).
See new Win32::GUI::Textfield() for %OPTIONS

See SetBkgndColor()
CanPaste([FORMAT=CF_TEXT])
Determine if RichEdit can paste a specified clipboard format.
CanRedo()
Determine whether there are any actions in redo queue
CharFromPos(X, Y)
Returns a two elements array identifying the character nearest to the position specified by X and Y. The array contains the zero-based index of the character and its line index.
DisplayBand(LEFT, TOP, RIGHT, BOTTOM)
Displays a portion of a RichEdit's contents, as previously formatted for a device using the EM_FORMATRANGE message.

SetEventMask(MASK)
The SetEventMask() method sets the event mask for a rich edit control.
The event mask specifies which notification messages the control sends
to its parent window. MASK is any combination of:
ENM_CHANGE Sends EN_CHANGE notifications.
ENM_CORRECTTEXT Sends EN_CORRECTTEXT notifications.
ENM_DRAGDROPDONE Sends EN_DRAGDROPDONE notifications.
ENM_DROPFILES Sends EN_DROPFILES notifications.
ENM_IMECHANGE Microsoft Rich Edit 1.0 only: Sends EN_IMECHANGE
notifications when the IME conversion status has
changed. Only for Asian-language versions of the
operating system.
ENM_KEYEVENTS Sends EN_MSGFILTER notifications for keyboard events.
ENM_LINK Rich Edit 2.0 and later: Sends EN_LINK notifications when
the mouse pointer is over text that has the CFE_LINK and
one of several mouse actions is performed.
ENM_MOUSEEVENTS Sends EN_MSGFILTER notifications for mouse events.
ENM_OBJECTPOSITIONS Sends EN_OBJECTPOSITIONS notifications.
ENM_PROTECTED Sends EN_PROTECTED notifications.

this flag is ignored and the EN_UPDATE notifications are
always sent. However, if Rich Edit 3.0 emulates Rich Edit
1.0, you must use this flag to send EN_UPDATE notifications.
The default event mask before any is set is ENM_NONE. Returns the previous event mask.
