                locate [-r ] [--regexp=]

   -c                 - Parse original GNU Locate's '/etc/updatedb.conf'
                        when using the -u or -U options.  If 'updatedb' is
                        symbolically linked to the 'locate' binary, the

                        used.
   -e  - Exclude directories from the slocate database when
                        using the -u or -U options.
