I'd like to be able to type in Greek letters. Is there any way to do that?

I tried pulling down Format and selecting Language... and then selecting Greek from the list on the pop-up window. But nothing changed as far as I can see. When I type, the letters are still English or Latin or whatever, not Greek.

I'm using Atlantis 1.6.1.9 on Vista Home Premium.

You should add Greek as an input language to your Windows. Please see the following links for details:

Hi,
The Atlantis “Format | Language…” command tells Atlantis which language is being used. This affects the Atlantis AutoCorrect and spellchecking functions.
But Atlantis won’t type Greek for you.

To type in the Greek language, you need to configure your keyboard and Windows system to type in Greek.

For detailed instructions, you might want to have a look at the following pages:

HTH.
Cheers,
Robert

But wouldn't it be nice to have a Greek add-on spellchecker?

Twelve add-ons to choose from is a bit thin - the EU alone has 23 official languages. If that's too much work for one person, why not go for a crowdsourcing alternative that works?
