  they are treated as switches.  The following switches are
  currently supported:
  .TP 15
+ \fB\-dir\fR \fIdirectory\fR
+ Search for files which match the given patterns, but starting in the 
+ given directory.  This allows
+ easy searching of directories whose name contains glob-sensitive
+ characters (such as ``?[{*'') without the need to quote such
+ characters explicitly.
+ .TP 15
+ \fB\-join\fR
+ The remaining pattern arguments are treated as a single pattern
+ obtained by joining the arguments with directory separators.
+ .TP 15
  \fB\-nocomplain\fR
  Allows an empty list to be returned without error;  without this
  switch an error is returned if the result list would be empty.
+ .TP 15
+ \fB\-path\fR \fIpath prefix\fR
+ Search for files with the given path prefix, the remainder of whose
+ names match the given patterns.  This allows
+ easy searching for files with names similar to a given file,
+ even when that file's name contains contains glob-sensitive
+ characters (such as ``?[{*'').  
+ .TP 15
+ \fB\-types\fR \fIlist of types\fR
+ Only list files or directories of one of the types listed.  Currently only
+ type 'd' is supported, which lists only directories (hence avoiding the
+ need to specify a platform specific separator char), but in the future,
+ more types (possibly platform specific) will be supported: e.g. on
+ MacOS types such as 'TEXT', 'APPL' will be supported.  Unrecognised
+ types are ignored by glob.
