   Hello everybody. In order to work with Word Perfect 5.1 in a French 
   medium, I need the following file: 

                                  WP{WP}CF.THS

   I would appreciate if anyone with information as how can I find a copy
   of such a file could contact me. Thanks in advance.
 
                                           
                                            Mohammad

You can generate all accented characters with the English set-up by using
CTRL/V<letter><accent> (or ^V<accent><letter>)

For example: e with accute accent would be "^Ve'"
	     c with a cedilla would be "^Vc,"
	     i with an umlaut would be "^Vi""

You have to make sure that your printer knows how to handle these characters.
Most printer files are fairly complete and should work out-of-the-box.
Use the PRT.EXE command to modify your .PRS file if the accented characters
aren't handled properly (you may have to map these characters to sequences
like: <letter><BACKSPACE><accent>.
