Time to rethink path formats?

[adrian]

Ah, I had forgotten we had recently discussed this possibility and found a tricky way to do it:

Using template functions with the inline plugin

Changed my code to initial: | import beets.plugins the_func = beets.plugins.template_funcs()['the'] the_artist = the_func(albumartist_sort or artist_sort or albumartist or artist or '_') return the_artist[0].upper() And this works like a charm. Thanks!
