Um, I found that spelling in an ENGLISH dictionary, and AFAIK, it is the 
ONLY spelling for a word of that meaning.

Etymology: Italian, there follows, from seguire to follow, from Latin sequi

meanings:
1 : proceed to what follows without pause -- used as a direction in music.
2 : perform the music that follows like that which has preceded -- used as 
    a direction in music.
3 : transition smoothly, as in a performance or presentation.

The Spelling used "segway" was not found in any dictionary just checked, but
is the brand name for a series of small gyrostabilized 2 wheel vehicles.
