RegexTrim? - use a regular expression to trim off data.
ColumnEditScript? - use column editing to call scripts repeatedly on a set of data. (kinda like xargs)
TemporaryReBinding? - bind a key to a set of keystrokes so you can repeat them easily.
BuildScriptFromData? - use the text [MFA Degree] editor to augment a set of data with a script
