Spellcheck menu

Here’s a script that jumps the caret to the closest misspelled word in the current segment (in the direction towards the beginning of the target text) and brings up the context menu that you usually get on a misspelled word. It allows to correct, add, or ignore misspelled words in the current segment without using the mouse or pressing arrows to move the caret to the required position in the text. If you’re familiar with Alt+F7 in MS Word, you get the idea. The script should be assigned to one of the 12 available script slots, and then it can be run by pressing Ctrl+Shift+Fn. If Alt+F7 in MS Word is something that you use often, it makes sense to assign it to the slot 7 and run it with Ctrl+Shift+7 to make it easier to remember.
