Theta is close, You just have to turn it 45 degrees 
counter clock and then make the line a little bit longer.;-)
No it is Danish, believe me I've had to deal with it all my 
programming life..
All english letter You can get from Uppet to lower case by
adding 32 ( as You know ), but thats not the case with the 
Danish characters, and they are not even in the right order 
in the codepage, that sucks..

for refference:
greek alphabet:
