How to do i put all my files where the paste function have been disabled?

Question

I'm new to Ubuntu and I need to install Groovy graphics builder. I downloaded from here. The site says to do two things :

Drop all jar files into $GROOVY_HOME/lib

Drop the scripts into $GROOVY_HOME/bin

But how to do this? I have installed Groovy in this path :

/usr/share/groovy

I guess the site asks me to put(paste) all the downloaded files in /usr/share/groovy/bin and /usr/share/groovy/lib respectively as suggested by the site. But when i try to paste the files in /usr/share/groovy/bin I see the paste command have been disabled.

Since I'm a novice I don't know what to do, can anyone say me how this can be done?

I use Ubuntu 10.04

Thanks in advance.

It disables the paste command because you don't have permissions in that folder. If you want to paste there you are going to need root access.

For this open a terminal and type gksudo nautilus. This will open a nautilus windows that runs with all privileges.

Be careful using this because you can delete or change everything without warning.
