Seeing extended attributes with 'ls' (Unix->General)

Sometimes you see an @ after the directory permissions in an ls -l:

% ls -l ~/junk/SnapshotRepository.sparseimage
-rw-r--r--@ 1 markd  markd  135270400 Jul 24 20:38 /Users/markd/junk/SnapshotRepository.sparseimage

That means there's some extended attributes. use ls -l@ to see them:

% ls -l@ ~/junk/SnapshotRepository.sparseimage
-rw-r--r--@ 1 markd  markd  135270400 Jul 24 20:38 /Users/markd/junk/SnapshotRepository.sparseimage
