Or is this what you mean?
-----begin-----
import urllib
urlfile = open('c:\\temp\\url.txt', 'r')
newurlfile = open('c:\\temp\\newurls.html', 'w')
newurlfile.write('<html> \n<body>\n')
for lines in urlfile:
    try:
        if lines == '\n':
            pass
        else:
            lines = '<a href="' + lines.strip() +'">'\
             + lines.strip() + '</a>' + '<br>\n'
            newurlfile.write(lines)
    except:
        pass
newurlfile.write('</body> \n</html>')
urlfile.close()
newurlfile.close()
-----end-----
