How do find all the files which not instaled by pacman?

I want to find all the files which not instaled by pacman.

Can I get all the files which installed and pacman know and diff them with all the system files to find all the files in the system which pacman don't know them?

There may be a way with pacman...
or you could write a quick script...
or download jacman.

By downloading jacman you can click show not installed then use pacman to get what you want etc..or just use jacman.

I thought I filed a feature request along these lines (although I can't find it now, maybe I only mentioned it to a pacman dev), but being able to do pacman -Ql (or pacman -Qi) without a package name to obtain an entire listing of files across all packages would be helpful in some situations. Hopefully for pacman 3.1 With that implemented, you're most of the way there.
