R 2.5 under windows XP
R 2.5 under Linux FC 6

I currently use R under windows and when I do so, I get to work in a nice windows environment complete with a very useful menu bar that  includes a FILE, EDIT, MISC, PACKAGE, WINDOWS, and HELP menus. I have begun to use R under LINUX. When I run under windows, I get a standard terminal window, but I don't get the menus specific to R. Under windows I also have the ability to open a SCRIPT window, edit R code in the window and submit the code from the window. Is there any way to get a window with R specific menus and a script window?
Thanks
John
