Alternatively, you can simply prefix all scripts with

#! /path/to/R/Rscript
...

where the path is usually /usr/bin/
This info is in the manual that comes packaged with R under, conveniently, 
the scripting section. I assumed that he was getting some error message.
Likely, the script was not created executable, in which case the terminal 
command chmod +x "myscript.R" will do it.

Open a terminal, then run these two commands.

cd /home/the/directory/with/your/script
R

Then run this in R

source('yourscript.R')
