How and where would a person use this program?

So I'm chatting in IRC and I want to pull out a big word to make it sound like I know wtf I'm talking about, but I know if I spell it wrong, I'll be hammered into the ground by 10 trolls. The conversation is flying along and if I hang around to long, whatever I was about to say will no longer be relevant.

I wish mIRC had an in-line spell checker, but for now this is the best option for me.

incorrect spelling > Ctrl + Shift + Left (to highlight word) > Ctrl C > Alt Z = instant result.

If the word is unrecognised, the cursor is still in the box, so I can try again and hit enter for a new result.

If you need to use it a lot like I do

you get pretty fast at this key combo.

Just wish I didn't have to use the mouse to copy the correct spelling, once found.
