What is the shortcut for greek letters.

Hi all,


I am trying to find a shortcut for lambda but i found other greek laters by using option key. I can type µ.


Thank you,

You can only type a few Greek characters using the US keyboard layout. Instead use the Character Palette or activate the Greek keyboard layout. You should check the boxes for these in system prefs/language & text/input sources, plus the box for Show Input Menu in Menu Bar.


You can access Character Palette via Edit > Special Characters


You can access the Greek Keyboard by selecting it in the "flag" menu at the top right of the screen. Select Keyboard Viewer from the same menu to see which key does what.
