Jeff Almasol provides scripts on his redefinery website that do the following:
rd_CopyMarkers copies layer markers from one layer to any number of other layers.
rd_KeyMarkers creates new layer markers (either on the selected layer or on a new null layer) with comments that provide information about
keyframes at the same times.
rd_MapTextFileToMarkers sets keyframes for the Source Text property of a text layer and sets the values to text from a text file. The
keyframes are placed at times specified by layer markers on the text layer.
rd_MarkerNavigator creates a panel that makes navigating to markers and viewing their comments and other values very convenient.
rd_RemoveMarkers automatically removes markers from selected layers based on specified criteria (e.g., all markers in work area).
rd_Scooter creates a panel with controls for moving various combinations of items in time, including layer In point, layer Out point, layer
source frames, keyframes, and markers.
rd_CountMarkers shows the number of markers on the selected layer.
