Dear Ronaldo,
You should be able to put
local({
old <- getOption("defaultPackages")
options(defaultPackages = c(old, "Rcmdr"))
})
in an .Rprofile file in a directory reserved for this purpose, and have your
bash script start R from that directory (untested). See ?Startup for details
on how R starts.
I hope this helps,
John

This loads the Rmcdr package with the -l | --library switch abnd then evals a simple loop to keep running. You need to kill that loop with Crtrl-c at the end.
