A number of recent requests for accented Greek tex, has prompted me to post this.
Please be aware that Modern Greek now uses a single accent . This accent has now replaced all previous accents and spirits(sp?). All modern Greek print (papers,official Docs, etc) now uses this 'monotonic' system.
I do not know if Ancient Greek typesetting still uses the old 'multitonic' system.
