Presently, the only way to do exclusions is through the options for clamd in 
clamd.conf.  We have a ticket for a feature request to add a --exclude option 
to clamscan, but we unfortunately don’t have the time to address it anywhere in 
the near future.

Hi,
I just installed ClamAv on a desktop Linux machine. I would like to
set it up using aliases in the bashrc file, so I can do various kinds
of file and directory scans from the command line. Rather than an
unwieldy string of exclusions in the alias' command line, I would like
to have a file that lists exclusions, which Clam would reference. I've
seen mention of this ability, but not enough info to get me started. I
do not have the daemon installed, just ClamAv, and FreshClam for
updates.

Thanks for any insight.
