IMO the best short answer is don't target making an install package or msi at

capabilities in packages and having people install them. You can setup an
in-house package repo to simplify this and give them a startup script
Hi Kevin,
It might be just as easy to write R scripts that would do basic
analyses. Users could "source" these scripts in an R session or from
the command line. The scripts would be much more compact than the .exe
