The precise coding depends on the vowel with which it is associated.  

These are hexidecimal numbers.  You can use calc.exe to convert them to 
decimal.

LOWER — no breathing

alpha    1F70
epsilon  1F72
eta        1F74
iota        1F76
omicron  1F78
upsilon    1F7A
omega    1F7C

LOWER — smooth breathing

alpha       1F02
epsilon     1F12
eta           1F22
iota          1F32
omicron    1F42
upsilon     1F52
omega      1F62

The list can get rather long.  I would suggest that you go to <
www.unicode.org> and download the PDF files for Greek and Greek Extended.
