Changing Author Sort for Exporting

Using SAVE TO DISK, can I get Calibre to match the INPUT format when Calbrie saves to disk?....Don't want sorts on title... but by author first....

INPUT: Deaver, Jeffrey - The Clockworks.mobi (Match OUTPUT to this input)

Current OUTPUT: Clockworks, The - Jeffrey Deaver

Desired OUTPUT: Deaver, Jeffrey - The Clockworks.mobi

You'll need to create the right template. Using
Code:
{author_sort} - {title}
should work. There's a help page on the template language in the manual, should you need it.

We ARE NOT talking about Calibre's INTERNAL Library, file saving.
Assuming your Author Sort field is correct.

Code:
{author_sort} - {title}
