regular expressions use to save to a device with : "author (Surname Name) - title"

I had to format my Mac and now I lost all Calibre's settings.
I need some help to know which regular expressions use to save to a device with : "author (Surname Name) - title"
what I don't want is Calibre to put in the sort field Author, Surname and Name separated by a comma and in the Title sort field, the article at the end with a leading-in comma.
Now, in both cases (disk / device) I put the regular expression {author_sort} - {title} but title goes always at the end and surname in separated from name by a comma.

to make it clear, for the file "Oscar Wilde - The picture of Dorian Gray", metadata are :

Title is : The picture of Dorian Gray
what I get now is : Picture of Dorian Gray, the
what I would like is : The Picture of Dorian Gray

Author sort field : Oscar Wilde
what I get now is : Wilde, Oscar
what I would like is : Oscar Wilde

thank you !
