Subject: ls -fA -> still . and ..

$ mkdir foo
$ cd foo
$ \ls -fA
.  ..

I rather expected this output to be empty. -f enables -a, fine, but it
seems like the -A should override the -a, since it's specified after?

I guess it has nothing to do with -f in particular.
\ls -aA also shows . and ..; maybe it shouldn't?
Not sure, though ... --thanks, karl.
