Awesome! This very exciting. It didn't working out of the box for me,
but the three errors I received add easy fixes:
1) Add the path to R.dll to my PATH variable (I went to the 32-bit directory)
2) Add an environment variable R_HOME (C:\Program Files\R\R-2.12.1 for me)
3) Add an environment variable R_USER (simply my username in Windows).
Last snag is that running the tests with:
DOS>C:\Python27\python.exe -m "rpy2.tests"
yields the following:
E....Traceback (most recent call last):
File "<string>", line 1, in <module>
File "C:\Python27\lib\multiprocessing\forking.py", line 374, in main

EOFError
E........Error in function (new = FALSE) : file choice cancelled

[opens up an explorer window looking for a file, which I cancelled]
However, some cursory tinkering with commands here:
http://rpy.sourceforge.net/rpy2/doc-2.1/html/introduction.html
indicates that everything is working as well as i need it too.
Thanks very much for all work put into this!
