[R] Batch processing in Windows

[Bos, Roger]

Alternatively, use the full path in your call to R as I do below:

"F:\Program Files\R\R-2.4.1pat\bin\R.exe" CMD BATCH --vanilla --slave whatever.R

HTH,

Roger

R isn't in your path.  Either change your path to include it or place Rcmd.bat from batchfiles anywhere in your existing path:

   http://code.google.com/p/batchfiles/

and then:

   Rcmd BATCH ...whatever...
