AFAIK - the Job Spy mega-meta helper tool only works on the Tags column, and Tag-like custom columns.
The command line tools are invoked from the Windows command line. But if you're not familiar with using command line tools, my suggestion probably isn't worth pursuing. You would need to use other tools to transform what comes out of calibredb list_categories into something ebook-meta can process.
Does the object have to be the authors column, could it be a 'real' copy of the Authors column. A custom column with type names (e.g. Writer/#writers) would have a Manage items: Writers column, a'la:

SOLVED!!! Thank you. That was the reminder I needed about making custom columns...building off a column didn't work but a basic bulk metadata search and replace let me copy to another custom column using names managed like Tags. That's easy enough in my case to compile all authors on one book..
I've had my library tweaked just right for so long I've forgotten about some features in this awesome program.
Thanks, BR!!!!
