Hello,

I'm looking for a bit of help with including dirs for scanning with clamonacc. 
Ideally I want to only scan:

/user-home-folders/*/Downloads

Where * could be any user name. However it doesn't look like I can set a regex 
for the OnAccessIncludePath parameter. The aim of the above is to exclude 
'noisy' dirs like ~/.cache (where applications like Chrome create tons of 
files) from scanning. With many users I don't want all these files to impact 
scanning performance

If the above is not possible could I do something like the below?

OnAccessIncludePath to /user-home-folders/
ExcludePath /.local/
ExcludePath /.cache/
ExcludePath/.config/

In testing this I still see clamonacc tell me it's performing scanning on files 
created in .cache but will the engine itself ignore them due to the Excludes?

Is there a better way of accomplishing this?

Thanks
Nick
