Yes, a quick glance at greek-antt.enc reveals that it seems to be a variation on iso-latin-7; it contains ASCII in the upper 128 bits and monotonic Greek in the lower half. This seems to be the standard for TeX users in Greece, it cannot be used for polytonic Greek. If the fonts are available AND contain Greek Extended (I haven't seen them yet), I would volunteer to cook up an encoding that would correspond to our enco-agr, would that be a useful thing to have?
