Still can't get ghostscript to run without pausing

| Hi,
Using GS 8.54 on Fedora Core 6 Linux. I want to run a ghostscript
command to convert my PDF to JPGs in one fell swoop. However, I
noticed running the command, after processing each page, GS would stop
and ask me to hit return to continue. Following Dan Coby's advice, I
tried this, but to no avail ...
[me@mymachine]~/savetownlake/austinsaveladybirdlake.org% gs -
sDEVICE=jpeg -sOutputFile=output%d.jpg STL_Letter.pdf -c -dBATCH -quit
AFPL Ghostscript 8.54 (2006-05-17)
Copyright (C) 2005 artofcode LLC, Benicia, CA. All rights reserved.
This software comes with NO WARRANTY: see the file PUBLIC for details.
Processing pages 1 through 4.
Page 1[color=darkred]
Page 2[color=darkred]
Page 3[color=darkred]
Page 4[color=darkred]
[me@mymachine]~/savetownlake/austinsaveladybirdlake.org%
How can I eliminate this ">>showpage, press <return> to continue<<"?
Thanks, - Dave

Forgot the -dNOPAUSE switch?

I tried that, but it still didn't pause
gs -sDEVICE=3Djpeg -sOutputFile=3Doutput%d.jpg STL_Letter.pdf -c -dNOPAUSE
-dBATCH -quit
Does it pause for you? - Dave

As Ghostscript evaluates the command line parameters in sequence, try to
move the "-dNOPAUSE" before the file to process. The same applies to "-dBATCH".
