what does the @ mean on the output of ls on os x terminal?

Question

when doing an ls in a directory I get the following output:

drwxr-xr-x@ 12 xonic  staff    408 22 Jun 19:00 .
drwxr-xr-x   9 xonic  staff    306 22 Jun 19:42 ..
-rwxrwxrwx@  1 xonic  staff   6148 25 Mai 23:04 .DS_Store
-rw-r--r--@  1 xonic  staff  17284 22 Jun 00:20 filmStrip.cpp
-rw-r--r--@  1 xonic  staff   3843 21 Jun 21:20 filmStrip.h

I was wondering what the @ means.

thx xonic

Answer 1

It indicates that the file has extended attributes. Use ls -l@ to see them.
