+.SH PATHS AND LISTFILES
+Each path, including those on the command line and those in listfiles, must be
+specified as an absolute path starting from the root of the WIM image, like
+those output by the \fB@IMAGEX_PROGNAME@ dir\fR (1) command. However, path
+separators may be either forward or backward slashes, and the leading slash is
+optional.
+.PP
+On Windows, by default paths are treated case-insensitively, whereas on
+UNIX-like systems, by default paths are treated case-sensitively. In either
+case, the default behavior may be overridden through the
+\fBWIMLIB_IMAGEX_IGNORE_CASE\fR environmental variable, as documented in
+\fB@IMAGEX_PROGNAME@\fR (1).
+.PP
+By default, each path may contain the wildcard characters '?' and '*'. The '?'
+character matches any non-path-separator character, whereas the '*' character
+matches zero or more non-path-separator characters. Consequently, a single
+wildcard pattern may expand to multiple actual files or directories. Use the
+\fB--no-wildcards\fR option to disable wildcard matching and search for each
+path literally.
+.PP
+Each \fILISTFILE\fR must be a UTF-8 text file that contains a list of paths to
+extract, one per line. Wildcard characters are allowed by default. The
+following demonstrates an example listfile:
