Basically, I would like to start with just a plain vanilla R session running

From the old User Manual [2] of SciViews-R [1]:
"All programs developed by the  SciViews team are distributed
under an Open Source license (GPL 2 or above), as R itself. Our goal is
to contribute in providing a high-quality GUI for this statistical system
that can be freely used by everyone. SciViews-R is also programmed in
an  expendable way, which means any programmer  may implement
additional features, or even  a different suite of fully-compatible
companion applications. This  way, we hope to encourage
intercompatibility between the various R GUI projects. We wish others
implementations, possibly in Tcl/Tk, Gtk, Java, Aqua, … will develop.
However, we anticipate great potentials of the wxPython (wxWidgets +
Python) as a powerful platform-independent solution for these
companion applications. R-wxPython
(http://bioinf.wehi.edu.au/folders/james/wxPython/) uses RSPython),
but RPy (http://www.omegahat.org/RSPython/
(http://rpy.sourceforge.net/) is a possible,  although unidirectional,
alternative to write a Python/wxWidgets GUI for R.


Rather than getting access to wxWidgets in R via Python,
you might want to use the RwxWidgets package directly.
(http://www.omegahat.org/RwxWidgets).
As it stands, there is reasonably functionality already available
in the package. I expect that it will be a complete set of bindings
to all of the wxWidgets library within the next few months.
The bindings will be generated programmatically and just waiting
for me to finish up the more exotic parts of the code generation for C++
libraries in the RGCCTranslationUnit package.

  D.

We warmly
encourage any initiative in this direction and will support and help any
volunteer that would like to write a platform-independent version of
SciViews-R with these tools. Remember: your contributions are
welcome! "

The Manual may prove an interesting read for those interested in R GUI
creation. So could the manual [3] for the newer SciViews-K [4].
