My guess would be no, since as far as I know the mechanism it uses for
listening to events depends on the Windows R GUI. You could try it though.

Maybe you could create a shortcut that starts the Rgui but set it to start
the application "minimized". That might actually be ideal if the user wants
to extend the GUI or work from the console for any reason. I tend to see R
GUI's as complementing the console interface, rather than replacing it. The
key is that the R GUI is minimized, since it will tend to put itself on top
of an RGtk2 GUI. You can then have the GUI quit function also (and perhaps
optionally) quit R.
