Hi, John, and welcome to fossil!

AFAIK the only cannon way of doing this is using tools like 'find' and
'sed', e.g.:

fossil add $(find . -type f | sed -e '/\.exe/d;/\.dcu/d')

in my experience, it's safest to go add the files you want
individually, to avoid picking up generated or otherwise
"uncontrolled" files (those which don't belong under version control).
But i'll admit to being a bit old fashioned in that regard.
