You can also save yourself repeated calls to basename by using
for f in *eps; do
convert ${f%.eps}.jpg
done
Look under parameter expansion in the manpage for sh(1) (or bash(1) if you
have bash installed). As far as I can tell csh/tcsh doesn't support this
useful feature.
Essentially, a Bourne-type shell with parameter expansion expands
${variable#prefix} or ${variable%suffix} to $variable with the prefix or
suffix, respectively, removed.
