Just try it, it might work straight away. If not, check the R-FAQ for
differences to S-Plus. In my experience, they're not big. There are some
areas where S-Plus offers more features (for example, R does not include
Trellis graphics). 

If you're using something from an external library, remember to load it in R
first (with "library(something"). That got me a few times.

If it still doesn't work and you're really interested in finding out, look
up "S Programming" by Venables and Ripley (Springer, 2000) which covers the
fundamental differences between both implementations in-depth; or come back
to the list with the problems.

Cheers & good luck
