-exact

This is the default matching criteria, equivalent to cequal.

-glob

Uses C-shell globbing similar to string match.

-regexp

Uses Unix regular expressions similar to regexp.

-index

Instead of string matching, removes elements where pattern is the index of the element within list.

-all

Removes every element in pattern. The default is to remove only the first element matched or indexed.
