There are a number of lexica on CD. Logos has several, Accordance has some
(?). I believe there is something from Online Bible as well. The Accordance
people like to claim theirs is better -- I'm not convinced. Since I haven't
used it, I won't make any comments. You will, however, need to use a
different font from SPIonic. Logos uses GraecaII. I don't know what
Accordance uses. The website for Logos is <A HREF="www.logos.com">www.logos.c
om</A>. Gramcord has Accordance <A HREF="http://www.gramcord.org/index.html">
http://www.gramcord.org/index.html>.
I was just looking at the Online Bible site. Its considerably cheaper;
however, it appears to be quite dated.

I have no idea what font they use.
