I don't know of an easy way with `ls' here, so I think `find' is
best. To find all links in this and all subdirs:
 
find . -type l

or just in this dir:
find . -type l -maxdepth 1

without dotfiles:
find . -type l -maxdepth 1 -name "*"


`man find` will give you more options than you should ever need. :)
