Basically I have a large .txt file that contains various URL's mixed with some text.

I want to extract those URL's.

I googled hard, but I couldn't find a free program that does that simple task.

Please help.
 
Notepad++ and use regex in the find window (ctrl+f)
You can also google textmechanic and do the following:
Make new line before http
Replace empty space with new line (cause the urls are separated with empty space otherwise they will merge and wont work)
Remove lines that dont contain http
Remove duplicate lines.
Save to txt.

Post a sample...it shouldn't be to hard to code up.
 
If you are using google chrome you can download the "Jon's all in one domain tool" extension. Has a great simple domain cleaner built in.

You can also find a domain cleaner over at function.me
 
put that txt file into scrapebox. it will extract the urls and then check their headers
 
try this:

Thank you very much. It saved me.

Only problem is it is a bit slow. I have been trying to process a 200MB file today and it hasn't even extracted 1/8 of the links in 5 hours.


Thanks, but this one crashes.
 
Is the text file in some sort of consistent format? Such as a comma separated or tab separated? If so, you can just paste it into Excel and do a Data > Text To Columns, and select what the delimiter is.
 
pm i might do it for free if it will not consume much time. i do this type of work every day.

I'll do this for free if you like, will only take a few minutes as I've written similar software. I've sent you a pm anyway mate.
