listing ADS streams

[Reini Urban <rurban at x-ray dot at>]

mkdir temp; cd temp
touch myfile.txt
echo "This is hidden ADS" > myfile.txt:hidden.txt
ls -al
=> myfile.txt

cat myfile.txt:hidden.txt
=> This is hidden ADS

Should ls -al or readdir() display such hidden files?
Or should we provide/use seperate tools (such as lsattr for ext2)
to manipulate such NTFS specific properties?
