That's what I would use, too. If the OP is on a UNIX platform,
run the R-script in a loop in the shell is an alternative.
Something like this (bourne shell syntax):

for datafile in *.csv ; do
	Rscript analyze.R $datafile
done

The R script (analyze.R) can use commandArgs() to read the filename
argument.
