- Removes '[ ]' brackets from section titles.
- Recognizes various musical chords and associated notation.
- Filters and updates formatting (bold/unbold) for section titles, chords, lyrics, and more.

- Adding another browser tab/window the newly created document after completion.
- Proxy for puppeteer, to appear from a different IP address each scrape.
- Adding human like actions like clicking, moving the mouse randomly, selecting, etc. to appear as a normal user.
