You can use the convert command from ImageMagick:

	convert <eps-file> <jpg-file>

A batch solution is simple:

	#!/bin/sh
	for f in *eps; do
		convert ${f} `basename ${f} .eps`.jpg
	done

You can add

	[ ! -f `basename ${f} .eps`.jpg ] && 

infront of the convert command to avoid repeated conversions.
