You're using a version of ls that tries to set colours on things. The
escape-left-bracket sequences are terminal control codes to set
colours etc.
Just do
convert *
instead of trying to generate a list.
Or there may be an argument to colour-ls to turn off the colours.
You could alter the script if you liked:
-------
#!/bin/sh
for i in "$@"
do
jpeg2ps "$i" > "$i".ps && echo "$i".ps
done
The say
convert * > /tmp/files
Then you have all the output file names in /tmp/files
If you put the output file in the current directory it'll be picked up
by the * argument.
