+=head1 IGNORELISTS
+
+B<Ignorelists> are a generic framework to either ignore some metrics or report
+specific metircs only. Plugins usually provide one or more options to specify
+the items (mounts points, devices, ...) and the boolean option
+C<IgnoreSelected>.
+
+=over 4
+
+=item B<Select> I<String>
+
+Selects the item I<String>. This option often has a plugin specific name, e.g.
+B<Sensor> in the C<sensors> plugin. It is also plugin specific what this string
+is compared to. For example, the C<df> plugin's B<MountPoint> compares it to a
+mount point and the C<sensors> plugin's B<Sensor> compares it to a sensor name.
+
+By default, this option is doing a case-sensitive full-string match. The
+following config will match C<foo>, but not C<Foo>:
+
+ Select "foo"
+
+If I<String> starts and ends with C</> (a slash), the string is compiled as a
+I<regular expression>. For example, so match all item starting with C<foo>, use
+could use the following syntax:
+
+ Select "/^foo/"
+
+The regular expression is I<not> anchored, i.e. the following config will match
+C<foobar>, C<barfoo> and C<AfooZ>:
+
+ Select "/foo/"
+
+The B<Select> option may be repeated to select multiple items.
+
+=item B<IgnoreSelected> B<true>|B<false>
+
+If set to B<true>, matching metrics are I<ignored> and all other metrics are
+collected. If set to B<false>, matching metrics are I<collected> and all other
+metrics are ignored.
