       -x listname, --exclude=listname

NOTES

       The  interaction  between  -l and -x is as follows.  If any -l option is given then only the named list will be included in the search.	If
       any -x option is given but no -l option is given, then all lists will be search except those specifically excluded.

       Regular expression syntax is Perl5-like, using the Python re module.  Complete specifications are at:
