SEQanswers - View Single Post - Splitting a bed file in multiple bed files by track

See if this works.

Code:

awk '/^track/{x="Track"++i".bed";}{print > x;}' your_bed_file

This should produce multiple files (one for each track) with names like "Track1.bed Track2.bed" etc. Modify the word highlighted in red to get corresponding file names.
