But the modern Greek does not have the diacritics or punctuation either - 
perhaps was done to make it easier for the software writer when writing 
search routines. This looks useful if you can't quite figure out how to 
parse a verb, but it's not particularly easy to read passages in Greek 
using this.

As Dave Purcey mentioned, e-sword is also free, and it's a lot easier to 
read the Greek text in it. But I don't like Interlinears, someone who does 
might prefer the one Doug pointed to.

Neither one has quite the Greek text I want - e-sword uses a Byzantine 
Majority Text, the Interlinear lacks diacritics and punctuation. But 
e-sword also gives you a Septuagint with diacritics and punctuation!
