With Cocoon 1.8.x, do:

java org.apache.cocoon.Cocoon

You'll get a list of arguments that need to be specified:

Usage:
  java org.apache.cocoon.Cocoon [-p properties] [-A user-agent] Input Output

Options:
  -p : indicates the property file
  -A : indicates the user agent

Note: if the property file is not specified, Cocoon looks for a file named
"cocoon.properties" in the current working directory, in the user directory
and in the "/usr/local/etc/" directory before giving up.

If you're using Emacs, you can also make use of my XSLT-process mode
which allows you to run Cocoon on a file you're editing and see the
result right inside Emacs. Check it out at:

A screenshot of it in action is at

Hope this helps,
