R script in batch mode — Echoing messages to windows shell

I have an R script which is to be run in batch mode from a Windows shell
and I need to "echo" messages to this shell (reporting that this step has
succeeded and that other failed, and so on).
A combination of R CMD BATCH myscript.R con and options(echo=FALSE) is not
really an option since I also need to generate an .Rout file with all the
commands and outputs.
I have tried shell("echo Some text") to no avail.
Any help most appreciated!

This was just seen on SO:
"If my guess is correct, shell("echo Some test > CON") should work. ? Harry Johnston 1 min"
