Like Syd, I also run Saxon from the command line at times, under OS X.
The Saxon-B transform runs fine on my system as

  java -cp /Applications/oxygen/lib/saxon9sa.jar net.sf.saxon.Transform

However, attempting to run Saxon-SA using

  java -cp /Applications/oxygen/lib/saxon9sa.jar net.sf.saxon.Transform -sa

produces this error:

 "License file saxon-license.lic not found. Running in non-schema-aware mode".

Is the SA license somehow "built in" to oXygen 10? Is there a way to get
SA to work from the command line?

(I have my own individual SA license, and if I copy it to the oXygen
library then this works:

  java -cp  /Applications/oxygen/lib/:/Applications/oxygen/lib/saxon9sa.jar \
  net.sf.saxon.Transform -sa

but that won't work for other owners of oXygen who do not have a
separate license for SA.)
