Tom,

For what it is worth
1 - as a long term Windows user and complete Linux novice I found the 
process on Linux (using the Debian pages at CRAN and the r-sig-debian 
help list as an instruction set) fairly straightforward. Some things 
are easier, some harder.
2 - if all you want is a simple editor with syntax highlighting and 
the ability to pipe commands to the running R then you could consider 
Kate which you may already have. It is of course also much more 
powerful than that but you can effortlessly ignore the powerful bits. 
Plus Kate is a cute name.
