I have a test file. A in the folder: C: Users Documents R And I’ve already added R to the windows PATH: C: Program Files R R-3.0.2 bin

When in the cmd I try the command R CMD teste.R Windows does not know which program to use to open the file. If I use the command R teste.R The following message appears: TEST ARGUMENT. R ignored And the R is initiated in the cmd. After started the R if I type source("teste.R") windows runs the script, but wanted to avoid this step of starting R on CMD.

r batch cmd rscript

You can use the argument BATCH of R CMD or the Rscript:

R CMD BATCH teste.R

or

Rscript teste.R

    in linux the output of R CMD BATCH teste.R is the file teste.Rout. Already the exit of Rscript teste.R goes to the terminal. This is the same behavior in windows?

  • Yeah, the same thing!
