What is the history of the Greek keyboard?

Modern Greek computer keyboards place the Greek alphabet onto a key arrangement closely related to QWERTY. Many Greek letters occupy keys associated with similar Latin letters, while the remaining characters are arranged to make normal Greek typing practical.

Modern Greek normally uses the monotonic accent system, so tonos and diaeresis combinations are important parts of the keyboard. Polytonic layouts also exist for users working with Ancient Greek, historical texts, or traditional polytonic spelling.
