I'd like to find an online French dictionary (NOT just a spelling
database).  Ideally, it would contain both definitions and and
English equivalents, but I'd settle for either.  BTW, if anyone
knows where I could get computer-readable data, I'd be HAPPY to
write a lookup program.

Please reply via e-mail, as this is probably of limited general
interest.  I'll forward responses to anyone who wants me to.

Merci a l'avance,

I posted a similar request for an on-line French Dictionary a while 
ago and got no anwsers.  If anyone locates same, please post.

BTW, does anyone know of any calculator-like French-English translators
like the Franklin Speller?

Texas Instruments used to make a talking calculator-like translator.
I'm not sure if they had different ones for different languages, or
a general-purpose unit w/ interchangeable bubble memory sw.  Anybody
know if this gadget is still on the mkt?
