Does lame care about the input file's extension; ie, takes your input file as is and bases processing on file structure instead of extensions? If so, why not strip it off (or do a temporary cp) prior to passing it to lame, and then do the rename to .MP3 as per usual?
Yes it cares about the extension. I tried this:
and i got 'Warning: Unsupported audio format' even though 'hello' is of mp3 format.
I would just like to replicate the 'one-click conversion' from the audio converters in Windows, without installing software.
I can still add the 'mp3' extension in all files after conversion, that's no biggie.

I also noticed that all the songs in my Music Library does not include the '.mp3' extension in their filename :S
I copied 2 songs to ~/Documents and my script bypassed those 2 files because lame does not recognize them as mp3s. Audacity does though and it still uses lame for encoding.
I think it's getting too complicated now. I'll just look for a program that does batch encoding in *nix.
How do I execute a batch command from a script, which "waits" with the next command until the first one has finished?

A piece of my script looks like this:
#!/bin/sh

# run a long batch job:
./run_calculation.sh
# then rename resulting file:
mv output.dat backup.dat

VBRFIX(1) User Commands VBRFIX(1)NAME
vbrfix - fix erroneous VBR MP3 files
SYNOPSIS
vbrfix -flag1 -flag2 -flagn in.mp3 out.mp3
DESCRIPTION
In an average song there are points that require high quality and points that require low quality (i.e., silence). Instead of having the
whole file at 160kbps (CBR - Constant Bit Rate), we can use VBR - Variable Bit rate. This allows us to have say 96Kbps at points not
requiring high quality and 192kbps when we need it: resulting in an overall smaller but higher quality MP3.
However, the problem is that many MP3 programs estimate the time of a MP3 based on the first bitrate they find and the filesize. With VBR
you can get fairly random times; as most songs start with silence you usually get the song length being shown as much longer than it should
be. Also when you jump through the file in VBR: 50% through the file is not 50% through the song.
A VBR null frame is placed at the beginning of the file to tell the MP3 player information about the song length and indexing through the
song. Some poor encoders don't produce this null frame or do so incorrectly - this is what vbrfix attempts to fix. Vbrfix can also fix
other problems with MP3s as it deletes all non-MP3 content (other than tags you state you want to keep).
It can also help when merging two VBR MP3s together with a merging tool and then needing a newly calculated VBR null frame.
-ri1 removeId3v1 Tag
-ri2 removeId3v2 Tag
-skiplame if a tag was made by LAME don't fix it
-always always write a new file even if not VBR
-makevbr make it VBR (you need -always also)
-log write a log file
-lameinfo keep the lame info
