Use lsmac to get Mac file information in the Terminal
Authored by: carsten on Apr 09, '03 06:18:02PM

Unfortunately it is not a trivial task to simply patch GNU's "ls" source code to add type/creator codes and resource forks, but hopefully sometime in the future it will be possible. :)

Anyone with sufficient programming experience should probably e-mail the author directly if he/she can help with this endeavour, IMHO it would be *very* nice for the Mac platform to have GNU "ls" compile with such type/creator/rsrc features "out-of-the-box!"
