Thanks for swift response. This is working fine.
I am not sure how many special charters are there in a file. I have mentioned only few special charters in the file. But I may get more special charters which we don't know. Overall, I want to remove any special charter other then charters and display. Any help greatly appreciated.
Thanks-Suresh

xkbgetindicatormap
XkbGetIndicatorMap(3) XKB FUNCTIONS XkbGetIndicatorMap(3)
NAME
XkbGetIndicatorMap - Gets the map for one or more indicators, using a mask to specify the indicators
SYNOPSIS
Status XkbGetIndicatorMap (Display *dpy, unsigned int which, XkbDescPtr desc);
ARGUMENTS
- dpy connection to the X server
- which
mask of indicators for which maps should be returned
- desc keyboard description to be updated
DESCRIPTION
Xkb allows applications to obtain information about indicators using two different methods. The first method, which is similar to the core
X implementation, uses a mask to specify the indicators. The second method, which is more suitable for applications concerned with interop-
erability, uses indicator names. The correspondence between the indicator name and the bit position in masks is as follows: one of the
parameters returned from XkbGetNamedIndicators is an index that is the bit position to use in any function call that requires a mask of
indicator bits, as well as the indicator's index into the XkbIndicatorRec array of indicator maps.
XkbGetIndicatorMap obtains the maps from the server for only those indicators specified by the which mask and copies the values into the
keyboard description specified by desc. If the indicators field of the desc parameter is NULL, XkbGetIndicatorMap allocates and initial-
izes it.
To free the indicator maps, use XkbFreeIndicatorMaps.
DIAGNOSTICS
BadAlloc Unable to allocate storage
BadMatch A compatible version of Xkb was not available in the server or an argument has correct type and range, but is otherwise
invalid
BadImplementation
Invalid reply from server
