BUT:

c:\stat\r\R-2.13.0\bin\i386\Rcmd Sweave --help
Usage: R CMD Sweave file

A simple front-end for Sweave

Options:
    -h, --help     print this help message and exit
    -v, --version  print version info and exit

Report bugs to<r-bugs at r-project.org>.

Same probelem for help on Stangle, but not for any other command.

Is this a bug or some new facility I overlooked?
Looks like a bug to me.  I'll take a look.
Yes, some fixes in R-devel got only partly ported back to 2.13.1.  I 
think this only affected Windows.

I'll commit a patch shortly.  In the meantime, you can do what

R CMD Sweave file.Rnw

does quite easily:

Rterm.exe --no-restore --slave -e utils::Sweave("file.Rnw")

should do the same thing.  In R-devel, R CMD Sweave has more options.
