you could use the unix function 'script' before invoking the R
interpreter.
example session:
$ script
Script started, file is typescript
[x86_64|[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~]
$ R --quiet --vanilla
> 1:10
[1] 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10
> q()
[x86_64|[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~]
$ exit
exit
Script done, file is typescript
contents of file typescript:
===========
Script started on Tue Feb 5 19:01:32 2008

$ R --quiet --vanilla
> 1:10
[1] 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10
> q()
[x86_64|[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~]
$ exit
exit
Script done on Tue Feb 5 19:01:45 2008
