Yeah... -X matches a full directory path, so for the above you have to use -X /projects/biblatex-biber/files/biblatex-biber/current/binaries/stats If it can occur deeper down in the hierarchy, there's no help but to add more -X, replacing that final /stats with /*/stats, /*/*/stats, etc, until you feel like you've covered enough of them. -R always matches only the filename portion of the URL (not including anything before the final slash, or anything after a ?). There's currently no way to request a match against something anywhere in the URL (though this was planned to be addressed at some point, and may in fact already have something in the current dev sources, I don't know). -- Micah J.
