A simple example follows. The file is called Test.R
# Example
rm(list=is(all=TRUE))
cat("Enter file name")
fn<-scan(what="")
I execute the following:
@C:\PROGRA~1\R\R-2.4.1\bin\Rterm.exe --no-restore --no-save < Test.R >
Rout.txt
I do not see the "Enter file name" or have the opportunity to enter
the file name. I am running R in windows XP.
Thanks for your help.

First I think you should have 'ls(' instead of 'is('. Second,
your standard
input if from the Test.R file so you scan won't be reading from the
console. Here is what I got when I changed 'is' to 'ls':
/cygdrive/c/progra~1/r/r-2.4.1/bin: ./rterm --no-save <c:/test.r

You can see that nothing as read and the 'Enter file name' was there.

What is the problem you are trying to solve?
[[alternative HTML version deleted]]
This is much easier in R-devel: just use message() and scan("stdin").
gannet% cat Test.R
message("Enter file name: ", appendLF=FALSE)
fn <- scan("stdin", what="", n=1)
works for me in R-devel via R --vanilla -f Test.R > Rout.txt
I believe it also works under Windows.
