For SQL*Plus to process french accents characters when using SQL*Plus, you would need to set NLS_LANG

On Windows
set NLS_LANG=.AL32UTF8
set NLS_LANG=.UTF8
On Unix (ksh)
export NLS_LANG=.AL32UTF8
set NLS_LANG=.UTF8

Now when you start SQLPlus from Unix or Windows it will keep the accents on the french characters.
