I have an intel-based macbook pro with the powerpc of MATLAB
verion 7 from 2004 that won't launch.

I want to try to get Matlab to start with the -nojvm flag,
but It just keeps giving me back error. I'm not sure if I'm
entering the command in the right place?

I open up X11 and typed in matlab -nojvm
It says command not found. I'm pretty new to macs and matlab.
Any help will be appreciated.
Cindy
