Problem in loop

hi I'm jus getting some input from the user and copy to a file line by line using for loop till the user enters ^b. But when I cat the file many junk characters are present. How can fix this issue?

Code:
echo "Enter your input file"
         while read -r LINE
         do
         echo $LINE >> CONFIG_SPEC_FILE
               if [ "$LINE" = "^b" ];then
               break
               fi
         done

input given is
Code:
     element * CHECKEDOUT
     element \app\... .../ch_ananth/LATEST
     element \app\... /main/LATEST 
     load \app\bala
     load \app\HomeProject
     load \app\Build


Code:
cat CONFIG_SPEC_FILE

output I get includes many unknown characters along with the input.


Thanks
Ananth

NAME
Locale::Codes::LangExt - standard codes for language extension identification SYNOPSIS
use Locale::Codes::LangExt; $lext = code2langext('acm'); # $lext gets 'Mesopotamian Arabic' $code = langext2code('Mesopotamian Arabic'); # $code gets 'acm' @codes = all_langext_codes(); @names = all_langext_names(); DESCRIPTION
The "Locale::Codes::LangExt" module provides access to standard codes used for identifying language extensions, such as those as defined in the IANA language registry. Most of the routines take an optional additional argument which specifies the code set to use. If not specified, the default IANA language registry codes will be used. SUPPORTED CODE SETS
There are several different code sets you can use for identifying language extensions. A code set may be specified using either a name, or a constant that is automatically exported by this module. For example, the two are equivalent: $lext = code2langext('acm','alpha'); $lext = code2langext('acm',LOCALE_LANGEXT_ALPHA); The codesets currently supported are: alpha This is the set of three-letter (lowercase) codes from the IANA language registry, such as 'acm' for Mesopotamian Arabic. This is the default code set. ROUTINES
