Is it just me or is it difficult for all of us to remember the right writing for a same vocalic sound?

[i] for instance: ι, η, ει, οι, υ.

      With the Greek Polytonic keyboard, how do you type "ς" as opposed to "σ?"

        It's where the "w" normally is. Don't ask me why :)

          if you know a little touch typing it makes perfect sense.

            If I remember correctly: σ is at S, ς is at W

            so when you touch type it means that you type both of them with your left hand-fourth finger/Ring finger.

              You are absolutely right.
