RichTextBox text blinking

Question

does someone know, how to make various parts of RichTextBox text to blink in .NET on Winforms? Or maybe this is already done?(Google gave no help)

Thank you

First you need a timer. after selecting a text and click the blink button save the region of the text (startposition:endposition) to an array. With the timer change every second(for example) the color of the text in regions saved in the array. if the text is changed check if the change occured in a region and inrecrease or shrink the region. if the text is change outside a region check if the blinking text is moved and move the region also backward/foreward.
