What fun. It looks like
R --help
on R is not up to date, since it doesn't mention this option.
As it turns out, I just barely made a change to pass the same command
line arguments ( "-q", "--vanilla" ) to R on Win32 that are passed on
Unix systems. According to help("Startup") "--vanilla" implies "--
no-Rconsole" on Win32 so this may solve your problem.
I'll forward you a test version of RPy with these changes applied in
a separate email.
