Here is what I have been able to do so far. This is from reading the XS code, searching the sourceforge newsgroup, and searching the web.. Not much but a start.

#!perl
use strict;
use Win32::GUI;
################ MAIN WINDOW #############
my $MainWindow = new Win32::GUI::Window(
    -name   => "MainWindow",
    -text   => "Test",
    -pos    => [600,50],
    -size    => [415,320],
    -noflicker=> 1,
    );

my $RE = $MainWindow->AddRichEdit(
    -parent  => $MainWindow,
    -name    => "RichEditControl",
    -pos     => [$left, $top ],
    -size    => [$width,$height],
