                    ^^^^^^^ (in France too!)

  Of course, it is not a specific PSTricks question. But for labels of axes,
you have to redefine the macros \pshlabel and \psvlabel (notice that there is
a typo in PSTricks documentation page 51, refering to \psxlabel and \psylabel,
typo reported in pst-doc.err). Something like:

\documentclass{article}

\usepackage{pst-plot}

% To change decimal points by virgules in axes labels
\makeatletter
\def\pshlabel#1{\expandafter\LabelVirgule#1..\@nil}
\def\psvlabel#1{\expandafter\LabelVirgule#1..\@nil}
\def\LabelVirgule#1.#2.#3\@nil{%
\ifx#1\@empty0\else#1\fi
\ifx#2\@empty\else,#2\fi}
\makeatother

\begin{document}

\psset{unit=2}

\begin{pspicture}(-3,-1.5)(3,1)
  \psaxes(0,0)(-3,-1)(3,1)
\end{pspicture}

\begin{pspicture}(-3,-1.5)(3.5,1)
  \psaxes[Dx=0.5,Dy=0.5](0,0)(-3,-1)(3,1)
\end{pspicture}

\begin{pspicture}(-3,-1.5)(3,1)
  \psaxes[Dx=0.5,Dy=0.2](0,0)(-3,-1)(3,1)
\end{pspicture}

\end{document}
