There is a 'Mark' verb in the Applescript dictionary, but I can't

mark v : mark matches of a specified search pattern with a string
mark reference : text to be marked
options Mark Options : options for the search

your case)
Does anyone know how to use this?
Yes. I know how to use it :-)
It doesn't look like it is related to markers somehow (unless it
automates the 'mark all' function).
It is related to mark all. In fact, recording mark all will give you
an example of how to use it.
Or if you write it out by hand, you'll end up with something like:
tell application "BBEdit"
tell text of document 1
mark it options {searching for:"^asdf: (.*)$", using:"\\1",
clearing existing:true}
end tell
end tell
