DESCRIPTION
  Secure Locate provides a secure way to index and quickly search for
    files on your system. It uses incremental encoding just like GNU locate
    to compress its database to make searching faster, but it will also
    store file permissions and ownership so that users will not see files
    they do not have access to.

  This manual page documents the GNU version of slocate.  slocate
    Enables system users to search entire filesystems without displaying
    unauthorized files.

 OPTIONS
    -u   Create slocate database starting at path /.

    -U <dir>
    Create slocate database starting at path <dir>.

    -e <dir1,dir2,...>
    Exclude directories from the slocate database.

    -f <fstype1,...>
    Exclude files on specific file systems from  the  slocate
    database.

    -c   Parse '/etc/updatedb.conf' when updating the slocate database.

    -l <level>
    Security level.  0 turns security checks off. This will make
    searchs faster. 1 turns security checks on.  This is the
    default.

    -i   Does a case insensitive search.

    -q   Quiet mode. Error messages are suppressed.

    -n <num>
    Limit the amount of results shown to <num>.

    -r <regexp>
    --regexp=<regexp>  Search the database using a basic POSIX regu-
    lar expression.

    -o <file>
    --output=<file> Specifies the database to create.

    -d <path>
    --database=<path> Specifies the path of databases to search in.

    -h   --help Display this help.
