I defined external in the top level build.properties
external=${lib}/external thinking that this will allow user to specify
where the 3 jars (webui.jar,dataprovider.jar,defaulttheme.jar) are, in
case they already have creator installed somewhere and don't want to
copy them over. Just to be a little more flexible. Either way will
work and is fine with me.
