Have you got examples of such web pages?  I read some Greek things on
the Net, and I have no problem with spaces among the letters.
I know the symptom Dimitris describes and it is easily solved by
installing truetype fonts like the webfonts port or your own truetype
fonts in ~/.fonts Dimitris you may allso want to check your settings
in your shell startup scripts i.e. (assuming bash)

export LANG=el_GR.ISO8859-7
or
export LANG=el_GR.UTF-8

Good point.  I'm too sleepy right now (the coffee hasn't started kicking
in yet from a very early wake up), but it would be nice if we also added
a note to the article saying that it is important to have the correct
locale environment *before* the X server fires up, to make sure that all
X11 programs grok Greek.

Manolis, if you feel like it, and you get to it before I do later today,
can you add a note like this?  If you don't, I'll get around to it when
I finish some early morning errands.

Done, and pushed along with a few minor other fixes.
