I would like to find files not matching *.jpg (case insensitive), can
anyone tell me how to use GNU find to do that? I know I can use -
iname to be case insensitive but I can't find out how to exclude all
the files that match rather than include them.

There is an art, it says, or rather, a knack to flying.
The knack lies in learning how to throw yourself at the ground and miss.
