Thanks for the quick response! While I agree Rcommander is not the same thing as either ESS or RStudio, it can also be useful as a wrapper when testing out functions and scripts. I learned R on it and it's a more comfortable environment for me than ESS. (Thank you for writing it!)
Strangely tcltk seems to be functioning just fine on my system. tkProgressBar() shows a little horizontal thermometer window with no complaints. The problem comes when I try to load Rcommander. splines, RcmdrMisc, car, and sandwich all load, but then a dialog box pops up saying that XLConnect is missing and asking permission to install it. XLConnect won't install because rJava is apparently unavailable for XLConnectJars because I need to be root in order to install rJava So I guess I've just answered my own question - without admin access I won't have either Rstudio or RCommander. That's the cost of paying someone else to maintain our Big Machine as part of a server array.
