You probably have ls aliased to 'ls -F', or some combination of
options that includes -F.  (Check with "alias ls".)  Read the
documentation for ls to see if there is a different combination of
options that gives you the behavior you want.  If you can't find it,
you can write to bug-coreutils@gnu.org to submit a feature request.
