I am using the following FileSet to backup only doc and sxw files on
Windows. I have tested this on 1.37.38 and also the current stable
version, whatever that might be.
>From what I understand in the documentation, when it hits a matching
option it follow the rule and if there is no matching option it
includes it, so when it sees a doc or sxw file it skips the second Options
clause. If it is not a doc or sxw then it always matches the second
Options clause. There is no "default" files to be included by not
matching.

I could not figure out how to not include just files with no extension

FileSet{
        Name = "docfiles"
        Include{
                Options{
                        compression = GZIP
                        signature = MD5
                        wildfile = *.doc
                        wildfile = *.sxw
                }
                Options{
                        wildfile = *.*
                        exclude = yes
                }
                File = "e:/my documents"
        }
}

It would indeed be very logical. But it doesn't work unfortunately.
Exclude everything with .* or *.* or ".*" or "*.*" doesn't work.
It is not permitted in the Exclude resource.

My guess is that it should be something like RegexFile = "^.?*$"
But I can't get it to work.
