[R] R BATCH script & reading command line options à la argc() & argv()

Hello,

I'm writing a R BATCH script on linux that connects to a MS-sqlserver to 
fetch its data (=cross-platform).
After the processing in R it does updates in the MS-sqlserver.

I want to be able to pass parameters to the R BATCH script to control which 
data it has to process.
Is is possible to read the command line parameters passed to R in a BATCH 
script?

I've found the function commandArgs( ), but this doesn't do the job...
Is there a possibility to use c-style argc( ) and argv( ) functions?

Regards,

Rik
