the first method is for first marking the tags you want to delete from the tags column but then moving those marked tags+other non-marked tags to the cutom column? from what I've tested:

marked !!! on the tags I want to keep in the Tags column
"Animal, apple, Cat, cog, color, Dog, machine, Orange"
"!!!Cat, !!!Orange, Animal, apple, !!!cog, color, Dog, machine"

source: tags
search for:^!!!(.*)$
replace with:\1
destination: customtags

result:
"Animal, apple, Cat, cog, color, Dog, machine, Orange"

It basically moves all the tags from Tags to Custom column but without the !!! prefix then you delete the marked tags from the Tags column? I am left with the tags I haven't marked in the primary Tags column, but those tags aren't what I want to keep unless I am doing something wrong.
