    Grab first word, or grab until char command

    for dynamic path creation when ripping:
    It would be good to have a command to get the first (or last) word, or grab until a specified delimiter character (e.g. space, semi-colon).
    For example, it would be useful to get the last name (fred chopin). Or if I have an entry like Chopin (1810-49), I'd like to grab "Chopin" (the first word, or the string until the first space).

    or strip first word also ?

    for example, I prefer to create subdirectory for classical music with only the lastname of the composer:
    - with John Adams, I will have: \Adams\
    - with Ralph Vaughan Williams, I should have: \Vaughan Williams\
    yes, not easy
