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.
