4. Dowload and extract ScalaTion

$ wget http://cobweb.cs.uga.edu/~jam/scalation_1.1.tar.gz
$ tar xvfz scalation_1.1.tar.gz

5. Export the SCALATION_CLASSES environment variable to point at class files

// Put this in your ~/.profile file to make it permanent. Then, execute "source ~/.profile" to reflect changes on the current session.

$ export SCALATION_CLASSES=$HOME/scalation_1.1/target/scala-2.11/classes

6. Test SBT installation by compiling ScalaTion

$ cd scalation_1.1
$ sbt compile
