[R] set working directory to current source directory

[Kenn Konstabel]

When you close R it asks whether to save the workspace. I often say
"yes" and later start R by double clicking on that workspace (named
.Rdata) -- then the wd is automatically set. Alternatively you can
have setwd("X:/some/thing") at the beginning of your source file.
