Caveat: I work much more on Linux than Windows:
Rcmd.exe
is a historical left-over as back in the day, you could not do R CMD something
on Windows but needed the special executable Rcmd.exe something
. That is no longer the case, yet it is provided for backwards compatibility.Rterm.exe
is also a holdover from the days when Rcmd.exe
was used. Can be ignored these days.R CMD BATCH
is a crutch that was needed in the days before littler and Rscript.exe
, and similarly lingering from old docs and habits..Rscript.exe
is your friend for batch scripts; use it.R.exe
.Other than that, as Marek hinted, the reference manual is the wrong one among the six available manuals. Try the Introduction to R and the Installation and Admin manuals both of which have specific appendices for Windows.
