Hello patrick, Jim.

The @ means that the files have extended attributes.

From the OSX man page for ls:
Quote:
If the file or directory has extended attributes, the permissions field printed
by the -l option is followed by a '@' character. Otherwise, if the file or
directory has extended security information (such as an access control list),
the permissions field printed by the -l option is followed by a '+' character.
You can view (or delete) these attributes using the xattr command, but some of them are used by Spotlight and can be quite useful.
