Hi

 Fasta file is just a  text file,  so you can read it as any other text file
using perl. The name usually is somthing.fasta, but you can keep the old
name (output.txt)

The format is:

> sequence description
sequence (60 letters)
sequence (60 letters)

For more info, reed this link http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/FASTA_format
