Hey G'day folks,

Have something that's been bothering me for a while.

How would I go about washing current authors I have in Calibre that are named differently..

eg I have 3 different naming conventions that have somehow crept into my dbase.

A.A. Attanasio
A A. Attanasio
A A Attanasio (this is the format I want no full stops)

So when I save to disk I should have just a single Author folder name with the exception of multiple authors.

Author First name Surname

With the above I of course get 3 folders which I don't want. My brain is just not finding the problem. I would like to wash all of my authors in Calibre and get rid of all the offending . full stops and have them replaced with a space.

Also can I add price as a custom column? I have trolled the forum and see that some people do have price as a custom column but no code as to how too?

Cheers in advance for assistance.
