Your mother tongue is Korean but extended Consolas supports monotonic and polytonic Greek. XHTML is commented out while Better Explorer is now getting an 500 Internal Server Error.

Thank you for the heads up Tae! It’s fixed now.

How to get polytonic Greek working in this typeface?

It doesn’t support polytonic Greek I’m afraid; there is literally no need (or interest) for polytonic monospaced Greek typefaces. You’ll have to add them yourself if you’re interested.

You have worked on Greek for your bitmap typefaces (ZOE TFOM, Bob′s Game etc.).

I’m sorry, this sentence makes no sense to me.

There is a typo on the have your say page. For general comments, observations, complaintsd (e.g. about the site), you can use the form found in the Contact page. The word complaints has an d at the end. How to get polytonic Greek working in this typeface? You have worked on Greek for your bitmap typefaces (ZOE TFOM, Bob′s Game etc.).

Lucky procrastination Sunday!
Yeah, I have informed Raph Levien of its existence; I am not sure it’s good enough to be merged with the original (there is also a hinted version of the Roman font that, if I recall correctly, is currently being used in the Google Font Directory; my font is not hinted), but hopefully if it’s deemed good enough/more people ask for it/Raph remembers it/what have you, it may happen.
P.S.: Do let me know if you find any more issues with it.

This must be my lucky day 🙂 First I decided for no reason at all to search about a Greek Inconsolata and found one. Then I got a bugfix too!
I know that non-Greeks have little use for it, but have you talked to Levien about the possibility of merging?

In reply to Kostas. Kostas, thank you very much! The answer is simpler (and more embarassing) than it should: because I had mistakenly aligned the top of Psi to the wrong guide. It's fixed now --- you can download the latest version of the font from the software page. =)

Just thought I should say thanks. Your work definitely deserves more than a cup of tea.
I don’t know anything about fonts, design, etc. but I do have a question. Why is the capital psi taller than the other letters?

Γειά σου Νίκο,
προφανώς — όπως γράφω και παραπάνω — η απόδοση της γραμματοσειράς σε περιβάλλοντα με επιβεβλημένη την χρήση hinting, όπως π.χ. το Cleartype στα Windows, αυτή ενδέχεται να μην είναι αισθητικά ή λειτουργικά υψηλή. Φυσικά αυτό δεν αφορά μόνον την εξελληνισμένη έκδοση, αλλά και την αρχική έκδοση με λατινικούς χαρακτήρες (σημ.: υπάρχει βέβαια από πέρυσι hinted έκδοση της roman γραμματοσειράς που μάλλον θα είναι κάπως καλύτερη σε Win/Cleartype).

Καλημέρα,
τη δοκίμασα κι εγώ στα Windows και φαίνεται πολύ χλωμή με αποτέλεσμα να μην μπορώ να τη χρησιμοποιήσω. Στο Mac φαίνεται μια χαρά.
