How to read long text file in matlab and regenerate it?

Hello Everyone, I want to read one very long text file in matlab and then regenerate it as separate file with the same content. Only issue is file contains combination of numbers, characters and special characters at random locations. I have attached one type of this file along with this message. Can any body please tell me an easier way to this? I want to do multiple iterations with this file using Matlab. Hence matlab should be able to reproduce it as it is with the same extension. Thank you in advance,

Sincerely, Nik

Run_1.inp.txt is 2.4MB, which isn't that long. Reading the file shouldn't be a problem - parsing might be.

Anyhow, Google proposes HJSplit, Freeware multi-platform file splitters
