find – the find program
. – search the subtree starting in the current directory
-iname ’*.jpg’ – find all elements that match the shell pattern ’*.jpg’. This should be done case-INsensitively
-type f – only match files
-exec rm -f {} ; – execute the command “rm -f {}” for each matched file, where ’{}’ is replaced with the name of the matched file.
