Exactly, it uses the output file name you specify as the second argument
For example
ebook-convert
Really_really_long_and_tricky_ebook_title_with_many_words.epub
short-book-title.txt
Would turn that really, really long titled epub into a short-name.txt file
Note though that it's not perfect though however

Hi Geoff-and-Willem: Those instructions in ebook-convert seem to imply
inconsistancies. On 1 hand it says the file name is derived from an
input name, but then Geoff says I must supply an output name? Well, I
experimented with another dot epub, pasting in that name as an
output, but replacing an extention with a dot txt. It went through a
process, seemingly first converting to an html, but then a txt. Thanks
in advance
