Use the IDs generated; each ID is started with a char with an underscore; 
here is a summary;

E_ Explicit id for a file
D_ Explicit id for a dir
A_ {Arch} dir
x_ Explicitly tagged file/dir
a_ =all file.
w_ =default file
k_ =dont-care file
?_ names based tag.

Simply don't print things like the E_, D_, A_, a_, w_, k_ files.
Browing through the sources and searching for one of the above strings will 
probably make it easy enough.
