[OS X TeX] batch convert eps to pdf using epstopdf

[Hanspeter Schaub]

Thanks for pointer.  However, I can't seem to get it to work.  In a 
terminal I type as you suggest below, but I get

hp% foreach f (*.eps)
foreach -> epstopdf $f
foreach -> done
foreach ->


How does one invoke the foreach command? I didn't find a man page on it.

thanks,

HP
