.   Up here in Canada it seems to be fairly standard that WordPerfect is
available with a french dictionary. They also provide a number of
other dictionaries (on request/payment) for either specialty needs in
English or other "foreign" languages.
 
.   At the University of Alberta, our site licence includes a copy of the
french dictionary, as well as the UK one (rather than the US one).
 
.    or am I misunderstanding, and you actually want the program to
run in french?
