Im using the latest release and the terminal did not recognize the usual R
command, hence I created an alias. Note that the binary in bin is a
symbolic link to the Library path, so I guess you could just add a link to
the usr bin path if its missing.

To circle back to the original question, you could check out Platypus to
wrap your command into an app. Basically write a simple bash script to call
R with the desired parameters, and Platypus will turn that into an app that
you can put on your launch bar. Might be easier than apple script
