Try

Code:

{series:re(([^\s])[^\s]+(\s|$),\1)}{series_index:0>3s| - | - }{title}

Personally, I would prefer

Code:

{series:shorten(4,-,4)}{series_index:0>3s| [|] }{title}

(for some values in the shorten) because the first letter of a single-word series name doesn't tell me enough, and it gets rid of 2 extra spaces.

Edit: If someone wants to reply here, please do so in the sticky thread Interesting uses of templates, plugboards, and composite fields?
