comment Is there a way to export my starred locations from Google Maps?
@myhd: sorry I didn't fix this. it works fine for me. maybe it's just a difference in your terminal character set, and you can fix it just by removing all the print statements? stackoverflow.com/q/5695421/125507

I have hundreds of starred locations, so anything that requires manual copypasting is no good. :)

the best you can do is indent the text and apply a background color :(

This no longer works since they killed the old format completely and force-upgraded to the new one.

@endolith: And the coordinates do appear in the page's source 3 times: ...,overlays:{sxcar:true,markers:[{id:'A',cid:'4350987349087335054',latlng:{lat‌​:40.729879,lng:-73.991094}...

The KML link doesn't appear immediately, but after some refreshes it works. I'm not sure the API can access it

They all appear in Google Bookmarks, but only as URLs with cid numbers like https://maps.google.com/?cid=4350987349087335054, and they're mixed in with all other bookmarks, but maybe a script could step through and follow each link and extract the name and coordinates?

But they forcefully upgraded all old-style Docs to new-style Docs, and revision history for old-style Docs was lost. :(

That notation doesn't work for me, it gives an output of {(Fit[data, funs, vars] | 40 Fit[data, funs, vars] 1000 Fit[data, funs, vars] | 1360 Fit[data, funs, vars] 10000 Fit[data, funs, vars] | 3480 Fit[data, funs, vars]), {1, x, x^2, log(x)}, x}

Yikes. Could it be automated, I wonder? The "Save to map" is not a normal link <span jstcache="0" class="actbar-text">Save to map</span>

@Dmitry: Is there a way to export them one by one? I could write a Python script to automate it?
