There are not one, not two, but three different Greek fonts in
circulation, to my knowledge, perhaps more.  Silvio Levy's (with 
all breathings and accents for Classical Greek), Hamilton_Kelly's
for modern Greek, and Yannis Haralambous's again for modern Greek
(based on Levy's MF code).  These are all fully described in various
issues of TUGboat, starting from about issue 9(2).  

Best wishes,
