I need to extract URLs from a text file. This text files contains various text and URLs are scattered in it.

Can you recommend a free software that can do this?

From Cookbook (Recipe 20.3):

[perl]
#!/usr/bin/perl

use HTML::LinkExtor;

my $FILENAME = 'file.html';

$parser = HTML::LinkExtor->new(undef, $base_url);
$parser->parse_file($FILENAME);
@links = $parser->links;
foreach $linkarray (@links) {
my @element = @$linkarray;
my $elt_type = shift @element; # element type

# possibly test whether this is an element we're interested in
while (@element) {
# extract the next attribute and its value
my ($attr_name, $attr_value) = splice(@element, 0, 2);
if ($elt_type eq 'a' && $attr_name eq 'href') {
print "ANCHOR: $attr_value\n"
}
}
}
[/perl]

I don't know how to use this code. Can you give me a link to ready made software or script?

Thanks bcolflesh!

This software works right the way I need. Only one small drawback, it's not free.
