I do not recall if I had JAVA_HOME environment variable set when I was
under SuSE 7.2 but you need to have the saxon libraries in your class
path so first export the CLASSPATH (note the libraries could be
different and their location may vary on your system as I have SUSE 8.0 

export \
CLASSPATH=/usr/lib/saxon/saxon.jar:/usr/lib/saxon/saxon-jdom.jar:/usr/lib/saxon/saxon-fop.jar:

'java com.icl.saxon.StyleSheet $1 $2 $3 '

1 output
2 documenent
3 stylesheet 

if uou got it working then make an alias in your .alias file

alias saxon= 'java com.icl.saxon.StyleSheet $1 $2 $3 '

Hope this helps
