R help - Sep 2005 - execute R expression from command line

Can I execute an R expression from the command line without having it
in an infile, something like perl's -e flag. So it would look like:

R {Rexpression;} > outfile

With a bash-like shell, you can do:

echo "library(foo); somefunc(5)" | R --slave
