Just after sending off my last reply I remembered some correspondence from
last year with Ioannis Papadopoulos in Greece on this same subject.  He
offered the following information:

1. CP437 and CP850 code pages are being modified in Greece. The older
   machines have their orignal character set generator IC's replaced
   and the newer machines have special drivers to support greek
   characters. These modifications are made by dealers, in Greece.

2. The Hewlett Packard unix machine uses another standard, called
   ELOT-928 (ELOT is an acronym and means Greek Standards Organization)
   that is "trying" to become a standard not only in Greece but
   worldwide (as far as greek characters are concerned).

And he offered the following translation table and keymap for accessing
ELOT-928 applications.  However, I don't know what the local code page is,
or how it got there (see #1 above).
