Now that we can sort properly ignoring articles, is there a field that returns the name of the file without the article?  Or perhaps there is a function that detects articles?

For example, given 'The Abyss', I'd like to get back 'Abyss' or 'Abyss, The'.

I realize I could write this and I will, but I really want to use the articles from setup as opposed to hardcoding them into my function and having to change them in multiple places.

Coming next build:
NEW: Added the expression function NoArticles(...) to remove the articles from a string.

You can also use the Swap(...) function to move a leading article to the end.  That's already in the current build.
