Hello,

\documentclass{article}
\usepackage[dvips]{graphicx}
\begin{document}
This includes a JPEG file.
\DeclareGraphicsRule{.jpg}{eps}{.bb}{`convert #1 eps:-}
\begin{figure}

\includegraphics{test.jpg}

The about test file used to work in older versions but it's no longer 
working in fptex 0.7.

I've set shell-escape to t in texmf.cnf and "convert test.jpg eps:-" 
works with no problem.

The tex log apparently indicated \write18 is enabled. As it's small, I 
included it in the full below.
