Thanks for the plug on NppToR. Yes it is portable, but a few of the features don't work. I have it on my plan to have a launcher for the portable apps menu. Also the website for NppToR is now https://sourceforge.net/projects/npptor/
On my personal website I also keep, semi-up-to-date a portableapps.comcompatible launcher for R. http://www.stat.tamu.edu/~aredd/site/?q=node/2. There is a full installation and just the launcher. If you download just the launcher you can install the latest version of R into the bin directory and It will work. I think it is version 2.8.0 in the installer. I'll update that soon.
