Where did you type that?  It looks like you typed it within R.  That's a 
shell command, and needs to be typed in a shell.

However, I can't be sure about this, because you're not showing us what 
happened when you tried it.

Please, please, please:  if you need help with an error, show us the 
exact error message and tell us the context where you received it.
