Will {authors:"re($, ',', '')"} work ?

There are probably a number of different ways to achieve the same outcome, but this is how I do it now:
* In Calibre, enter the author name in the format FirstName LastName without a comma, or if there is more than one author as FirstName1 LastName1 & FirstName2 LastName2 etc.
(Don't worry about the Author Sort, the Kobo doesn't use that, it only affects how the books are sorted in Calibre.)
* Enter the Metadata Plugboard (Preferences > Metadata plugboards) for KOBOTOUCH device as
program: raw_list('authors', ', ') with destination
authors
See the screenshots below showing: Metadata for single author book, metadata for multiple-author book, metadata plugboard configuration.
