While writing a script to help one of the posts on here, I end up writing a wrong one. I am very much eager to know how this can be corrected.
Aim was to not print specified columns - lets say out of 100 fields, need to print all but 5th, 10th, 15th columns.

xgetpointermapping
XSetPointerMapping(3X11) MIT X11R4 XSetPointerMapping(3X11)Name
XSetPointerMapping, XGetPointerMapping - manipulate pointer settings
Syntax
int XSetPointerMapping(display, map, nmap)
Display *display;
unsigned char map[];
int nmap;
int XGetPointerMapping(display, map_return, nmap)
Display *display;
unsigned char map_return[];
int nmap;
Arguments
display Specifies the connection to the X server.
map Specifies the mapping list.
map_return
Returns the mapping list.
nmap Specifies the number of items in the mapping list.
Description
The function sets the mapping of the pointer. If it succeeds, the X server generates a event, and returns Element map[i] defines the logi-
cal button number for the physical button i+1. The length of the list must be the same as would return, or a error results. A zero ele-
ment disables a button, and elements are not restricted in value by the number of physical buttons. However, no two elements can have the
same nonzero value, or a error results. If any of the buttons to be altered are logically in the down state, returns and the mapping is
not changed.
can generate a error.
The function returns the current mapping of the pointer. Pointer buttons are numbered starting from one. returns the number of physical
buttons actually on the pointer. The nominal mapping for a pointer is map[i]=i+1. The nmap argument specifies the length of the array
where the pointer mapping is returned, and only the first nmap elements are returned in map_return.
Diagnostics
Some numeric value falls outside the range of values accepted by the request.
Unless a specific range is specified for an argument, the full range defined by the argument's type is accepted. Any argument
defined as a set of alternatives can generate this error.
