Hi guys, in skin ACE how can i tell XBMC to hide prefixs like "The" "A" ,etc etc?

example:

The Office
The Family Guy

and so on.

I want to hide completely the prefixs or send all to letter T.
Currently XBMC ignores The prefix but i get T between other letters...i don't like it Smile
anyone?
I believe the procedure has nothing to do with the skin, just go to:
Settings -> Appearance -> File Lists -> Ignore Articles When Sorting (e.g. "The").
Yes, that will hide "The" but not "A" and "An" and '"'. To do that you have to include the following in your advancedsettings.xml file. (See the Wiki if you don't know what or where that is.)

Code:
<sorttokens>
    <token>The</token>
    <token>A</token>
    <token>An</token>
    <token separators="">&quot;</token>
</sorttokens>
thank you guys
