R script

Is there some way run an R script from the command line?  Can I put a
line at the top of the file like I would for a bash or perl script?  For
example, a such a script (test.r) might look like.

#!/usr/bin/R

x <- c(1:10)
print(x)

running ./test.r at the command line doesn't work.  So is there a way to
do this?  Am I missing something, or do I just have to start R and
source() the script file (sans #!/usr/bin/R) like I'm already doing?

I have had the same problem by trying to install R.1.3.1. I m not specialist so my

answer will be perhaps not clear or stupid. I think that you must copy the R
script
in the directory as /usr/local/bin/R and it must be "world readable" (chmod u, g
and o +r)
and executable(+x). If it's impossible for you to copy the script you have not
probably
the authorization (so see you "root").
The other solution is to type  all directory path which contains /.R  (I think
that is /usr/bin/.R for you)
the thing before ./R must be all the path where is the script (/usr/bin).

Bye good luck.
