[B-Greek] Transliteration - Translation

I have a quick question.  Has anyone ever produced a transliteration 
version of the greek NT? 

I was just reading about Origen's Hexapala.  As I understand it, there 
were at least 4 competing Greek translations of the OT.  He was trying 
to help show the differences by using 6 columns; Hebrew, Hebrew 
transliterated into Greek, Greek versions.  I was wondering why he would 
have had a transliterated column and then I realized that it was 
probably to help them refer to the Hebrew while writing Greek.  It would 
help them to be consistent if they could all refer to a standard 
transliteration version.

In the same way, it would make it easier for me, if I could bring up a 
transliterated version parallel with my other versions.  Then I can work 
from the greek but cut and paste from the transliteration.

I'm especially looking for a Bibleworks file if one exists.

Any thoughts?
