javacswarm and javaswarm are just wrappers to whatever SDK and JVM that 
Swarm is built for.  It just sets the CLASSPATH and PATH as needed.   
Typically Swarm is configured for jikes as a Java compiler (for speed), 
and Sun JVM as the runtime.  On Windows, for example, uou can ignore 
those scripts provided you have the Swarm DLLs in the PATH and the 
CLASSPATH with the swarm.jar file in it.
