It will depend on your path variable,
if you look at the path by doing
echo $PATH
Normally you should see in the path something that includes
/usr/bin:/bin:/usr/sbin:/sbin:/usr/local/bin
if you do
whereis R
it should answer
/usr/bin/R
which is probably an alias

Hello,
I am on Mac OS X Version 10.8.5. I recently installed R-3.0.2.pkg on my machine which by default put the R application in my /Applications folder. When I envoke R by double clicking on the R application file in my Applications folder it opens up a GUI just fine. However, when I try to invoke R from a terminal window I get the error "-bash: R64: command not found." This appears to be unrelated to R not being in my path. /Applications is in my path and when I cd to the /Applications folder and try and invoke R by typing "R" or "R --help" I get the same "command not found" error. I read in the R installation and Administration manual that "A version of R can be run directly from the command-line as e.g. /Library/Frameworks/R.framework/Versions/3.0/Resources/bin/R). However when I cd to this directory and type "R" I get the same "command not found" error again. It also does not appear related to R not being executable. The R installation in my /Applications folder looks like thi!
s with ls -l:
drwxrwxr-x 3 root admin 102 Feb 12 05:20 R.app
Any advice?
Thanks,
Cathy
