Send, {F6}
Send, +{End}
;Toggle to the target side and select up to the end of the line

*) Daredevils can add a loop to the macro.
*) I guess that multi-line segments will need something like +{EndOfSegment} instead of +{End}?

Caveats:

- The macro stops at identical targets (probably at identical sources too ...).
- It doesn't handle synonyms correctly (you'll have to prepare the input manually).

Changed the Title to something more appropriate
