I actually am trying to execute using a command passed to Rterm.exe.
I get the following output back to the editor:

I don't have any experience with that. However, if they can work with
a console mode program, then rterm (not Rgui) is what you want to be
executing.

Greg,
It seems you are trying to use interactive functions like getline() in
batch, that is, a non-interactive mode of R. You can look at the WinEdt
interface: it mostly uses sendkeys to simulate actions in RGui. In WinEdt
interface, there seems to be a problem when RGui is iconized, because then,
R does not interpret keystrokes.
I wrote a little program to allow sending commands, and sourcing files to
RGui from TextPad (http://www.textpad.com). You can find it at
http://www.r-project.org/GUI, in the IDE/Script Editors section. You can
either use Textpad which has quite similar features as Edit-Plus (after a
quick glance in the web site), or you can adapt and use it with Edit-Plus.
Best,
Philippe Grosjean

Note that for ESS and windows, there's an extra command line
option,
Rterm.exe --ess .....
which should help {but about which I don't know much more (since
