I do have a script available, though it is not in a traditional R script file/document, but an .Rhistory file as well as on Notepad. Is there a way I can convert one or both of these file types into an R script file so that I can run the commands directly to my console?

An R file is nothing more than a text file with an R extension instead of a TXT extension. Use any text editor you like to rearrange your commands in the order you want and remove false starts (beware of Notepad... it seems to have a tendency to tack on a .txt extension in addition to the .R extension of you are not careful). If you use an R development tool like ESS or RStudio or Notepad++ with the R extension, you can type all of your commands into the file editing window first and you can use a hot key to copy them to your R console. That way you make a file and test your commands as you write them, all at once.

Very interesting.... I will have to take a look. Thank you very much for the reference to these resources! They will be of great help to me.
