Using plugboards to change the Sony DB is now supported as a special format, device_db. I surely hope I didn't break anything.

I am working on a save template for my BBMini: it uses these composite fields:

{#folder_name} is a composite field: {#folder_a_t:lookup(#folder_a_t,#u_z)}
{#folder_a_t} is a composite field:
This is an interesting idea, and it screamed for simplification.

As of 0.7.22, try using the 'switch' function. Documentation is:
Code:
switch(pattern, value, pattern, value, ..., else_value) – for each pattern, value pair, checks 
if the field matches the pattern and if so, returns that value. If no pattern matches, 
then else_value is returned. You can have as many pattern, value pairs as you want.
I think that the following will do what you want.
Code:
{title:switch(^[a-dA-D],[A-D],^[e-jE-J],[E-J],^[k-qK-Q],[K_Q],^[r-zR-Z],[R-Z],[Other])}
Note that in the next release (0.7.23) you will be able to use title_sort as a field name. In .22, it always returns the empty string. Sigh.
