wxpython TextCtrl color specific part of the text

Question

I'm using wxpython to create GUI with python, now, is there a way to color specific part of the text?

Example (using Tkinter):

Here is my Print function:

def Print(self, String):
    ''' Print Received Data '''

    self.text_serverLog.AppendText(datetime.now().strftime("[%H:%M:%S] " + String + "\n"))

I found the function SetForegroundColour but sadly its color the whole TextCtrl.

I'm using Win7, python 2.7, wxpython. Thanks.

You can use the wx.TextCtrl in RichText mode by setting its style flag to wx.TE_RICH or wx.TE_RICH2. You can also use the aforementioned RichTextCtrl or the StyledTextCtrl (1 or 2). There's also FancyText, but I think that's more of a helper for drawing text than a real control the user can edit. Regardless, all of these widgets have examples in the wxPython demo package, which you can find at the wxPython website's download page.
