Thanks so much!

This:

authors:"~^\\w*\\, \\w"

works like charm. Thanks again.

However, I am confused. Why the two backslashes before the w? I have a reference guide that says (quote):

\d, \w and \s are shorthand character classes ... can be used inside and outside character classes.

So my thinking was that I need "any letter", followed by a comma, then a space, then any letter. Hence I should be able to use \w*,\s\w*. So despite the bug about the comma, this should work, shouldn't it.
