  I have a user who would like a different character set available to 
  him when he uses the Option-key. 
  
  Specifically, he wants a full Greek alphabet available with the option 
  key, while using, say, the Chicago font.  (i.e. in MacWrite he does not 
  want to have to select the Symbol font to get those greek characters 
  which are not option characters of the Chicago font).

  Seems to me there ought to be some way to accomplish this, I'm just not
  sure what's best. Is there an easy, straight-forward way of doing this, 
  or am I going to have to edit the font myself to change the option chars? 
  Any good font editors out there?

  Can anyone help me?
