title: Opening a .R file via a double click (Windows)
body: <p>I am looking for a way to double-click on file name in Windows Explorer directory (XP) that will open the R GUI and display the script (but not run it). In other works I want R to work in a similar way to opening a PDF (or pretty much every other program) from the Windows Explorer directory.</p>
  
  <p>I have tried to find the appropriate .exe from Right Click -> Open With -> Choose Program route but to no avail. I have also tried moving the R icon from my Start | All Programs to the C:\Documents and Settings..\SendTo to allow me to select R from Right Click -> Send To -> R. This also failed.</p>
