Need to separate paired-end reads from single fastq file.

Hi there,

I have paired-end reads (in fastq format) merged in a single fastq file, i need to split them into two files please help,

Data is; @HWI-700463F:192:C9M9YANXX:6:1101:1397:2190 1:N:0:CGATGTAT CGAGGACCATGGACACAGCAGAACAAGATGAAGACACCAGGGCTAGGTAATTCCTTGTGAGGGCAGGACCAGCACTTCTGTGTTGCTGTCCCTATGGGAA + BBBBBFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFF

does 1 in "1:N:0:CGATGTAT" means forward read and 2 in "2:N:0:CGATGTAT" mean reverse read..
