Don't languages generally tell you about potential look-alike characters specifically for this reason?

The code editor I use would say something like syntax error ';', expected ';' and underline the character in red. That might lead to some head scratching as apparently the Greek character is literally the same, but with a different Unicode value.

I'm talking about when you try to run/compile code, not in the editor.
