User defined regex pattern based coloring isn't currently available in

You can partition the text as you like and register different
functionality on the different partitions. Note however, that the editor
does not have a column mode.

Take a look at the material on the Platform Text page:
http://www.eclipse.org/eclipse/platform-text/development/dev .php,
especially the tutorial.

I didn't claim that ;-) but it explains how to partition a document and
color it plus it gives a good introduction.
