Hello.

I'm a visually impaired statistician, working at the National Institute of Public Health in Denmark.

I would like to use R for some analysis and have succesfully installed version 2.13.0 on my Windows XP labtop.
I then would like to run R interactively but unfortunately the textfont of the command line in the R window is very hard for me to read. I use a special program called Zoomtext that among many other functionalities enables me  to invert colurs.

It is possible to change the prompt (using options(...)) but I cannot see that it is possible to change the font - eg. and most importantly changing its color or size.

I have tried to check the Windows FAQ but couldn't find anything.

Is this possible? And (of course) - if yes, how?

I guess the best solution for me is to run R non-interactively because I can use an editor for my programs - but it is cumbersome.
Can I as a DOS command write something like
R <input-file> <output-file>?

I'm very new in R so it's exciting for me to see if I have any response.

Best wishes
Michael
