how can i edit this data file using MATLAB?

Hello This is my data file. Its name is “FAR.DATA”(here it is saved in txt file). I want MATLAB to read its content and find some keywords in it so I Edit the data related to that keyword (the data of each keyword is placed under that keyword till the slash sign). This is the mat code I used to find keywords WELSPECS and COMPDAT. The data file which is in a notepad file is defined as struct. The code could find the line number of each keyword, but unable to find the number of lines between the asked keyword and its backslash sign. Could someone help me with that? file format is .DATA but this format is unsupported here so i have changed it to .txt. thanks

clc;

    fid = fopen('FAR.DATA','r');
    model.datafile = textscan(fid, '%s','Delimiter','');
    fclose(fid);
    model.datafile = model.datafile{:};
    DATA = model.datafile;

    % Find COMPDAT line
    La = ~ cellfun(@isempty, strfind(DATA,'WELSPECS','ForceCelloutput',true));
    Lia = ~ cellfun(@isempty, strfind(DATA,'COMPDAT','ForceCelloutput',true));

   Welspecs = model.WELSPECS; %%The Number of WELSPECS and COMPDAT and WCONPROD 
in which the parameters are changed.* _
   Compdat = model.COMPDAT;
   mm = model.CompletionNodes;
   LNCOMPDAT=find(Lia);       % Line number of COMPDAT
   LNWELSPECS=find(La);       % Line number of WELSPECS

% Next line after COMPDAT is Well Completion DATA — LN+1 % Spliting The line of Data for ii = 1:size(Welspecs,1) % In this loop the line of WELSPECS and COMPDAT is conveted to cell array

           for jj =1:Welspecs(ii,2)

           splitSt{jj,ii} = regexp(cell2mat(DATA(LNWELSPECS(Welspecs(ii,1))+jj)),'\ ','split');
           end
           for jj=1:Compdat(ii,2)
            splitStr{jj,ii} = regexp(cell2mat(DATA(LNCOMPDAT(Compdat(ii,1))+jj)),'\ ','split');
           end

end
