I don't believe the package has ever been used under Windows.  It is
setup for Unix. The same infra-structure should work, but the
configuration/setup should be quite different.

I am not certain which version you have, and whether it even supports
running R inside Perl. The original package did things the other way
around - namely, Perl in R.  I am in the process of finishing off an
update to the package which provides support for running R inside
Perl, but this is not available in package form yet.  After that is
released, perhaps I or some interested party will explore the Windows
configuration setup.

 Hope that helps.
