[R] 2 questions: batch file + R 1.8 on Red-Hat 9.0

[Christian Landry]

Hi,

I have 2 different questions:

First:

I would like to know what is the format of an input command file when 
running R non interactively on a unix machine.

R< command.file

Is there a reference somewhere where I could read on that? Is it just a 
list of the command we would enter interactively usually?

Second:

Is there anyone who had success installing R 1.8 on Red hat Linux 9.0. I am 
new to both Linux and R and I receive error message when installing it.

Thanks a lot for your help
