"Original Name" issues & swapping first name last name

Hello,
Firstly, thanks for such great software!
I have a lot of foreign films and currently I am using this:
Code: Select all
{director} - {y} - {info.OriginalName} ({n})
which gives me this:
Emir Kusturica - 1985 - Otac na sluzbenom putu (When Father Was Away on Business)
However for my english language films it gives me this:
David Lynch - 1990 - Wild at Heart (Wild at Heart)
Is there anyway to get rid of the repeating english title?
Also, I can't seem to find how to swap director's first name & last name to get this:
Kusturica, Emir - 1985 - Otac na sluzbenom putu (When Father Was Away on Business)
Any thoughts!? Thank you

Easy, just use conditions:
Code: Select all
{n == primaryTitle ? n : "$primaryTitle ($n)"}

thanks rednoah,
The repeating english title is solved. Works great, and is it possible to swap first name, last name of director ie.
Kusturica, Emir - 1985 - Otac na sluzbenom putu (When Father Was Away on Business)

Easy:
Code: Select all
{director.split(/\s/).reverse().join(', ')}
Though, as your personal programmer I do somewhat expect a donation now.

ok i made a donation!
and for future reference here is the code:
Code: Select all
{director.split(/\s/).reverse().join(', ')} - {y} - {n == primaryTitle ? n : "$primaryTitle ($n)"}
that creates:
Kusturica, Emir - 1985 - Otac na sluzbenom putu (When Father Was Away on Business)
thanks again

Hello, I know this topic it's pretty old now... but I was wondering if it's possible to have the surname in all caps format (eg KUSTURICA, Emir).
With
Code: Select all
{director.upper().split(/\s/).reverse().join(', ')
it would go uppercase both name and surname...
any suggestion?

e.g.
Code: Select all
{
director.split(/\s/).reverse().join(', ').replaceFirst(/\w+/) { it.upper() }
}
