As the rich edit control allows text inside it to have multiple colours you have to use EM_SETCHARFORMAT.

Thanks :)
But as I replace "SetCtlColors..." with "SendMessage $0 ${EM_SETCHARFORMAT} ${SCF_ALL} 0", nsis compiler has two warnings:
unknown variable/constant "{SCF_ALL}" detected, ignoring (...)
unknown variable/constant "{EM_SETCHARFORMAT}" detected, ignoring (...)
If i forget to define header files?
the lParam parameter of the message EM_SETCHARFORMAT should point to a CHARFORMAT structure , how to send it in nsis?

You need to define those constants yourself as the actual values (search via Google). To allocate a CHARFORMAT, use the System plug-in.
