Split strings

Hello

I started to learn bash about 1 or 2 weeks, please help me.

I have about 200000 strings like these:

Code:
 ATGCCAGGGGAGCCCAGAAGGTAAAACTTGATCTGAAATGTATGTTTATATATAATTTAGGTAATCAATTGGCATGTGAA

and I need to split each letter to get:

Code:
 A T G C C A G G G G A G C C C A G A A G G T A A A A C T T G A T C T G A A A T G T A T G T T T A T A T A T A A T T T A G G T A A T C A A T T G G C A T G T G A A

I need this because I want to process each letter like a column by awk, in order to get de porcentual frequency of letters in each position. So if you help me with the awk code too, I will appreciate it so much. Smilie
