Hi,
If you decide against a command line system and decide to go SQL / Klexi way,
I want to suggest to you a relatively lesser known integrated database system -

Hi,
Thanks for the suggestion.
No, I don't do unicode scripting regularly.
My requirment was a one time requirment to analyse frequency of Malayalam text
to design a keyboard layout.

I will start with what I did in sequence
Using Konsole from my home directory
1)executed setxkbmap -layout us
2)executed xmodmap which gave the following output
xmodmap: up to 4 keys per modifier, (keycodes in parentheses):

lock Caps_

(U0D19)
