I've long used copier to create all of my posts for my blog, and it works
really well for my workflow. I think of a title, call a template, and give it
a title. out of the box obsidian did not seem to work this way. It seems like
it wants me to right click a file tree and make a new file using the tree, this
is not my jam.

Here is what I came up with to replace my til template.

```
---
date:
templateKey: til
title: str.replace(
 /\w\S*/g,
 txt => txt.charAt(0).toUpperCase() + txt.substr(1).toLowerCase()
 );
 const title = toTitleCase(originalFileName);
 tR += title + '\n'; // Add the title to the template result
-%>
published: true

```

* `tR` is a return value, and it gets placed directly into the place it is in the file
* `to.file.cursor()` creates a tab-index point so I can tab into the content
