R help - Jan 2006 - problem with command line arguments

Hello Everybody,

I am running a R script through a perl code from command line.
The perl script is like:

my $cmd= 'R CMD BATCH D:/try5.R';
system($cmd);

I run the perl code from command line.
Now I want to pass some command line arguments to the R script.
Its like the argv concept of perl.

Do I pass the arguments through my $cmd in the perl script?
If yes, then how to access that in the R script?
Any help will really be appreciated.

Thanks and Regards,
Madhurima.
