hello, I am planning to cut a larger opening in an outside wall made of
blocks. There is a large window at the moment and I want to install a
double french window.
I have permission from the building controls. I would like to know what
tools to use and how to proceed appart from supporting the load bearing
wall, which I know how to do. thank you.

You need a long drill, to drill through in each corner of the opeing,
then a pencil and straight edge to join the dots, then an angle
grinder to make the cut. then a hammer and chizel to take out the
blocks, and a wheelbarrow to shift them away ...

You'll know for sure when you hit a wall tie with a grinder
