Assuming script 'common.q' contains code that needed
different processing depending on interpreter
(either S-PLUS or R), what should the condition be?
if (<condition>) {
# Do S-PLUS code
} else {
# Do R code
}
Looking for something akin to the C preprocessor directive
USING_R, but for S.

Canonical method for S engine selection?

See ?is.R. This function is defined in both R and current versions of S-PLUS; there are instructions for how to put together a test that works in older S-PLUS versions too. Duncan Murdoch

I believe
exists("is.R") && is.R()
is a reliable condition.
