SmartIcon to run Spell Language and Spellcheck in one step

This functionality allows you to set the SpellLanguage and run the SpellChecker in one step. First answer the question with your language (keep in mind that the language.dic has to be installed) and wait for your spelling results.

To-Do:
- create a SmartIcon with Formula
@Command([ToolsRunMacro];"NameOfMacro")
- create an SharedAgent/Runonce/Script
- paste Code and modify your favorites
