Hi Robin.  Well the Everest dictionary was a waste of time. Having clicked on 
the linux version, 79MB later, and the following morning, I found it had 
given me the evil empire version.

Anyway.  StarDict is ok. The French-English/English-French dictionary is quite 
small, and doesn't give you the gender of nouns, but the 
German-English/English-German is a lot bigger, and gives the gender of nouns.

Thanks for the StarDict suggestion.

Nigel.
