I need to develop cross platform spell checker for Sinhala language with word suggestions. For that I need a UI framework which supports squiggly lines under words and right click base context menus for words. Ideally something like the picture below.

enter image description here

My initial idea was to use Tkinter and Python. But I could not find anyway to accomplish this task.Is there anyway I can accomplish this task with Tkinter? Or is there any cross platform GUI framework which supports this kind of task? Or is there a way for me to write this feature from scratch?

Tkinter doesn't support squiggly lines, and trying to simulate them or write them from scratch would be a considerable amount of work. You can, however, underline words and change other visual attributes such as the font, foreground and background colors.

Tkinter also supports right-click menus.
