Try this...

ls !(*.c)

From man ksh....
Quote:
In addition to the notation described in regexp(5), ksh recognizes
composite patterns made up of one or more pattern lists separated from
each other with a |. Composite patterns can be formed with one or
more of the following:

?(pattern-list) Optionally matches any one of the given patterns.

*(pattern-list) Matches zero or more occurrences of the given patterns.

+(pattern-list) Matches one or more occurrences of the given patterns.

@(pattern-list) Matches exactly one of the given patterns.

!(pattern-list) Matches anything, except one of the given patterns.
