+.SH NAME
+lsearch \- See if a list contains a particular element
+.SH SYNOPSIS
+\fBlsearch \fR?\fImode\fR? \fIlist pattern\fR
+.BE
+
+.SH DESCRIPTION
+.PP
+This command searches the elements of \fIlist\fR to see if one
+of them matches \fIpattern\fR.
+If so, the command returns the index of the first matching
+element.
+If not, the command returns \fB\-1\fR.
+.VS
+The \fImode\fR argument indicates how the elements of the list are to
+be matched against \fIpattern\fR and it must have one of the following
+values:
+.TP
+\fB\-exact\fR
+The list element must contain exactly the same string as \fIpattern\fR.
+.TP
+\fB\-glob\fR
+\fIPattern\fR is a glob-style pattern which is matched against each list
+element using the same rules as the \fBstring match\fR command.
+.TP
+\fB\-regexp\fR
+\fIPattern\fR is treated as a regular expression and matched against
+each list element using the same rules as the \fBregexp\fR command.
+.PP
+If \fImode\fR is omitted then it defaults to \fB\-glob\fR.
