I guess you mean R-1.6.2, but which version of R-WinEdt (it's mentioned
in ReadMe.txt; please use the latest one: 1.4-1)?

These are just the lines to turn (R-)WinEdt into the editor and pager
used by R.
If you really need these lines, you have to
a) set all required quotes,
b) escape the right quotes, and
c) specify the executable instead of the path (I guess you did the
latter assuming a default installation):
options(editor="\"c:/apps/WinEdt Team/Winedt/WinEdt\"
-c=\"R-Winedt-edit\" -e=r.ini -V")
options(pager="\"c:/apps/WinEdt Team/Winedt/WinEdt\"
-C=\"R-Winedt\" -e=r.ini -V")
Please follow the examples in ReadMe.txt.

Have you installed R-WinEdt properly (the answer is YES, if there is a
file c:/apps/WinEdt Team/Winedt/R.ini, as mentioned in the ReadMe.txt)?
Have you created the shortcuts to start WinEdt with the R-WinEdt plugin
properly (it's mentioned in ReadMe.txt).
For further communication related to R-WinEdt, please contact its author
directly.

[BTW: Looks like my comments at DSC2003 on the desirability of a new and
convenient installation procedure for R-WinEdt were correct.]
