The compose key does this. I have it for Swedish chars in the
Linux VT. Hääj! Those I insert with compose " a. Compose o and
a is å. Very clever! Whoever came up with it (the compose
key).

But the Swedish abc cannot be compared to the Greek as that is
a whole alphabet of its own. Depending on how often you have
to do this, the compose key is not a bad solution.

It is handy not to have to change back and forth between
keyboards, if you can avoid that with the compose key, it is
all good.
