I've noticed some files are missing from SPEEDBAR directory list.

Some files that start with period are missing.

That is the normal behaviour in Unix. Files that start with a period
are hidden by default when you list the contents of a directory.

Is there a SpeedBar equivalent of ls -a?

        If  I   remember  correctly,   if  you  browse   the  speedbar
customization  buffer there's a  regular expression  you can  edit for
files  to hide.  So  you could  have it  show everything,  nothing, or
ignore  files which  aren't  in programming  language  ____ if  you're
working on them.  I suppose if  you knew enough LISP you could do some
pretty spiffy things.

Speedbar uses the built in command `directory-files'.
It pushes the output through `speedbar-file-unshown-regexp'
and `speedbar-directory-unshown-regexp'.  If you mess about with these
variables you can get it to display anything you want.

The "show all files" menu entry toggles the display of files which
should not be 'unshown' but do not have a means of being tagged.
