After considerable experimentation I have found scripts which will run
ppower4 on both my Linux system at home and the Sparc Solaris system
at work.   The supplied script does not work, giving the above error.
I have no idea why these scripts work or the supplied one does not.
It would be helpful, to me and undoubtedly to others who have tried
it, if someone who is acquainted with Java would give a more
comprehensive discussion.

Here is the script for RedHat 6.2 Linux: 

----------------------------------------------------------------
#!/bin/sh

basedir=/home/mitchell/download/pp4
java -jar ${basedir}/pp4.jar  "$@"
----------------------------------------------------------------


Here is the script for Solaris:
----------------------------------------------------------------
#!/usr/local/bin/bash

basedir=/home/fac0/mitchell/tmp/pp4
jre -cp $basedir/pp4.jar de.tu_darmstadt.sp.pp4.PPower4 "$@"
----------------------------------------------------------------
