About

SPIonic is a public domain font that represents ASCII characters as Greek letters and diacritics. It uses a scheme based on Beta Code with a few variations, the most significant of which is that uppercase letters are represented by uppercase letters and lowercase by lowercase (whereas Beta Code uses *A for uppercase alpha and A for lowercase alpha). This tool will convert Greek written using this scheme into Unicode Greek characters.
