How do I see the resource forks, if not with ls?

And that still leaves 48KB unaccounted for, in that Terminal shows them both as ~48KB, whereas Finder says one is 96KB and the other is 144KB. So if it is a resource fork issue, one has a 48KB resource fork, and the other 96KB. Seems odd to me.

And the original file was only about 10KB...
