Chapters in YouTube - Automation - Good and Geeky

How to make chapter markers in Screenflow and export out ready for Subler and BBEdit. It's so easy to make this automation in Keyboard Maestro. Saves so much time.

I make the Chapters with Markers in ScreenFlow when I make the video. I hi the back tick key and write the Chapter title. When I export I ensure I export a test track with the chapters along with the video. Next job is to open the file in Subler and get the text exported out to a file. Open the file in BBEdit and then the automation magic happens. I made a Keyboard Maestro macro which runs in BBEdit and removes the cruft that I don't want in the Chapter markers so I end up with a text on the clipboard ready to paste into YouTube.
That's exactly what I did with this video and it is so easy to do.
