I can do this on my non-Microsoft computer. But the Greek font includes
many accented letters with and without breathings, occupying the full
ASCII range. The familiar QWERTY.... layout does not fully correspond with
the Greek equivalents, so the result is gibberish.
But a good idea if it works on your Mac.
