+Display values are in units of the first available SIZE from --block-size,
+and the DU_BLOCK_SIZE, BLOCK_SIZE and BLOCKSIZE environment variables.
+Otherwise, units default to 1024 bytes (or 512 if POSIXLY_CORRECT is set).
+
+SIZE is an integer and optional unit (example: 10M is 10*1024*1024).
+Units are K, M, G, T, P, E, Z, Y (powers of 1024) or KB, MB,... (powers
+of 1000).
+
+PATTERN allows some advanced exclusions. For example, the following syntaxes
+are supported:
+? will match only one character
+* will match zero or more characters
+{a,b} will match a or b
