Pattern search and save it as .txt file with some name..
Hello,
I have a note pad at /usr/abc location with the following content, since it is a huge file i need to split it into multiple .txt files.

Code:
A123|akdhj      |21kjsdff  |b212b1b21 |0
A123asdasd     |assdd     |asdasdsdqw|6
A123|QEWQ    |NMTGHJK |zxczxczx|3
A123|GEGBGH  |RTYBN    |xcvvxc|2
A123|VDFGER  |RYRYRTY |QRRWR|6
A123|RGEDFB   |YRTYTR |DFGDGDG|1
A123|DFRER    |WT3YTY |DGDGFG|2
A123|DFBDB    |QRQR     |QRQRQ|6
A123|DBDB     |WEWER   |QQQWER|8
A123|DBDBB   |WERWER  |YJTYJTY|0
Z213             |fasf        |afaf|afaffa|23
Z213             |asf        |afaf|afaffa|0
Z213             |FDDS        |afaf|afaffa|89
Z213             |RWER       |afaf|afaffa|8
Z213             |fQWE        |afaf|afaffa|8
Z213             |sdfdsf        |afaf|afaffa|7
Z213             |bfgh        |afaf|afaffa|3
Z213             |erter        |afaf|afaffa|1
Z213             |tyutyu        |afaf|afaffa|3
Z213             |rtret        |afaf|afaffa|9
Z213             |werwe        |afaf|afaffa|1

Above is the ac.txt file with huge content like this some starting with A123 some with Z213 and so on...
Now my requirement.

I want to read this file first search for A123 and save it in some other location containg all the records of A123, then search for Z213 and save it in some other location containg all the records of Z213 and so on..
Please suggest.

NAME

       canadian-english-huge - a list of English words

DESCRIPTION

       /usr/share/dict/canadian-english-huge is an ASCII file which contains an alphabetic list of words, one per line.

FILES

       There  may  be  any  number  of	word lists in /usr/share/dict/.  /etc/dictionaries-common/words is a symbolic link to the currently-chosen
       /usr/share/dict/<language> file.  /usr/share/dict/words is a symbolic link to /etc/dictionaries-common/words, and  is  the  name  by  which
       other  software should refer to the system word list.  See select-default-wordlist(8) for more information, and/or to change the currently-
       chosen word list.

       The directory /usr/share/dict can contain word lists for many languages, with name of the language in English, e.g., /usr/share/dict/french
       and  /usr/share/dict/danish  contain respectively lists of French and Danish words if they exist.  Such lists should be coded using the ISO
       8859-1 character set encoding.

SEE ALSO

       ispell(1), select-default-wordlist(8), and the Filesystem Hierarchy Standard.

HISTORY

       The words lists are not specific, and may be generated from any number of sources.

       The system word list used to be /usr/dict/words.  For compatibility, software should check that location if /usr/share/dict/words does  not
       exist.

AUTHOR

       Word  lists  are  collected and maintained by various authors.  The Debian English word lists are built from the SCOWL (Spell- Checker Ori-
       ented Word Lists) package, whose upstream editor is Kevin Atkinson <kevina@users.sourceforge.net>.
