I don't know if those ligatures should be mandatory or not. Many French 
speakers ignore they exists. In MS Word 2000, they are mandatory, and there is 
some autocorrections for the most commons of them, but not for all, and there 
are many errors in the dictionary (some ligature aren't there).

What is sure, it's that if they are mandatory, we must autocorrect them. And we 
cannot simply replace all oe by œ, because the ligature isn't in all words. The 
rule is that if the o and the e are in the same syllable, there is a ligature. 
But some words that come from other languages don't have the ligature.

In the attached document, I extracted all the words with oe and ae from the 
fr_FR dict, and I corrected all the words with the ligature. I put a = in front 
of words without the ligature, a + in front of some words I added and a ? in 
front of words I didn't find.
