Today I noticed that most bin/"executables" don't have the black arrow right of the bottom-of-the-logo-diamond, but a few do. From the ones i've seen, I think they're programs that are currently running.

Is this the case or is it something else?

Thanks

No. They are Link to Executables. In fact, they are symbolic links.
