Removing the "The" from an artist name

[edoxtator]

Hi

I'd like to convert a mass of FLAC files to MP4's, and I'd like the MP4's to be placed in a structure like: \Artist\Album\Track Number - Track Name.

I'd like to use the programmatic tagging feature to remove the "The" from the Artist name, so that the artist name "The Jazz Butcher" is simply "Jazz Butcher".

Is this possible? If so, what's the tagging string?

Thanks in advance.
