Version 2.x no longer has a -gui=none option. Running BATCH jobs supposedly disables a gui though.
There is no --gui=none option in 2.1.x (but there is in 2.0.x).
The gui is not disabled in 2.1.x either according to the help page nor in
practice (although using an actual GUI without an operator in attendance
is not in general sensible, and any error will terminate R).
Here is the NEWS item for R 2.1.0
o BATCH on Unix no longer sets --gui="none" as the X11 module
is only loaded if needed.
Try R CMD BATCH --gui=tk (Should be Tk, but that was a buglet in 2.1.x).

Hi, As part of a batch process I run R with option --gui none. This works nicely on one maching running Version 1.9.0 Under development (unstable) (2004-03-06) but on another machine using the newer Version 2.1.0 (2005-04-18) I get the following fatal error message: "ERROR: unknown GUI none" Does anyone know if this is a bug or a problem with the installation?
