The standard modern Greek keyboard layout

The key ";:" has the functionality of a dead key; you press it (nothing is printed) and then you press a vowel, and the vowel appears with a TONOS accent mark (άέήίύόώ). When you press ":" and then either IOTA (ι) or YPSILON (υ), these letters get the DIALYTIKA accent mark (ΐ ΰ).

There is a keyboard layout to type Classical Polytonic Greek. There is a bug report with this issue and GTK+ applications, described at GNOME Bugzilla #321896. See general instructions (in Greek) with screenshots from FC2.

All of classical Greek literature is available online and on CD-ROM from the Perseus Project at Tufts University, and the Thesaurus Linguae Graecae at University of California, Irvine.

Kios

Gemlik(Greek:Κίος Kios) is a harbor town bordering the Sea of Marmara in Western Turkey, at approximately 29 kilometres from Bursa and not far from Istanbul. Gemlik was called Kios until 1922 when its Greek inhabitants (around 80% of the population) were driven out of Asia Minor. In 2004, Gemlik had approximately 70,000 inhabitants. The harbour is one of the most important in Turkey. Somewhat east of Gemlik, a few remains of the ancient Greek town of Kios can be found. It is also famous all over the world with its olives and oils. Marmara Birlik, which is a society of olive farmers and producers, has ranked as top 1 among the olive producers in the world. The renowned Kurşunlu beaches is in Gemlik .
