Uwe, When I tried to install RWinEdt (R-3.2.2 installed from CRAN binary, Win 7), I got the following message:
> utils:::menuInstallPkgs() Package which is only available in source form, and may need compilation of C/C++/Fortran: ‘RWinEdt’ Do you want to attempt to install these from sources? So, I find the package listed on CRAN but there appears to be only source there, not a binary. I tried a few different mirrors with the same result. What have I missed?

There is also a binary for the R-3.1.x series, hence install.packages("RWinEdt") should do the trick. Anyway, if you want to install from sources, please instal the Rtools and also install with the --no-test-load flag (RWinEdt complains if called non-interactively).
