Σηατ υοθ ςα... What you want is a font that contains the Greek symbols
as well as the Latin-1 ones, as good Unicode fonts do.  I think Ariel
was made to be as covering as possible.  You'll then also need some way
to insert the right characters, in Linux I can just set the keyboard
layout to be Greek, and it works (as attached image shows).  Nothing
needs to be done by Dia.
