  2. Set your CLASSPATH to include the "dataadapter.jar" file 
     obtained from the download, as well as the current directory. 

     Assuming you unzipped GlawarDataAdapter_yyyy-MM-dd.zip 
     in /u/me/ the following would work:

      export CLASSPATH=$CLASSPATH:/u/me/GlawarDataAdapter_yyyy-MM-dd/dataadapter.jar

    Also include the "date.jar" file that you obtained from
    downloading the GlawarDate, in your CLASSPATH as well;
