[R] Odp: R on flash

[Prof Brian Ripley]

We were not told the OS, but if this is Windows, see the rw-FAQ 
'Can I run R from a CD or USB drive?'

If it is a Unix-alike: the scheme below will not work and you need to 
edit R_HOME in the 'R' script (including the copy in R_HOME/bin) if 
you relocate the R file tree.  That can be a problem if the 'flash 
disk' is read-only and mounted in a different place each time ....
