awk/sed script to print each line to a separate named file
I have a large 3479 line .csv file, the content of which looks likes this:

Code:
1;0;177;170;Guadeloupe;x
2;127;171;179;Antigua and Barbuda;x
3;170;144;2;Umpqua;x
4;170;126;162;Coos Bay;x
...
1205;46;2;244;Unmak Island;x
1206;47;2;248;Yunaska Island;x
1207;0;2;240;north sea;x
1208;48;2;236;atlantic ocean;x
...
3477;1;40;236;Lake Erie;x
3478;2;40;240;Lake Ontario;x
3479;3;40;244;Lake Winnipeg;x

What I need to do is print each line to a seperate unique .txt file.

The filename of each file must be in a particular format based on the contents of each line, for example "1 - Guadeloupe.txt" for the first file.

The contents of every file should be the same and is simply two lines:
trade_goods = timber
life_rating = 15

This needs to be accomplished using GNU command line tools such as sed and gawk. I am new to this.

I appreciate any help anybody can give me. Thank you.
