Maybe the documentation. The 'strings' are actually regular expressions
-- so, aside from anything else, you should really escape the period, as
in "\.bak" -- because the period on its own means "any character".

Try adding "\.GIF" and see if it then excludes the file -- then we'll
know if its really case insensitive or not.

1 just tells you its doing something.
2 lists the directories as they are indexed -- a useful progress report
without too much detail.
