[R] Unexpected input while building package in R

I am a newbie in R, and I am trying to build an R package but I keep getting
an unexpected input error when I try using the build, check or install
commands. I used the following command to generate the skeleton:

package.skeleton("test")
After this I went to the command prompt and to the directory with the test
folder and ran the command:

R CMD build test
I got the following error message:

Error: 37:1: unexpected input
37: 
     ^
I even tried the check and INSTALL commands on the package and got the same
error. I tried googling the error code and the error message but it seems
like I should not be getting such an error while building the package
itself. Everywhere I checked it seemed like simply typing that command in
command prompt should work. I am wondering if anyone knows what I am doing
wrong? Thanks for the help.

I am using R 2.15.0 on Windows 7.
