My Dear David Blocker:

You CAN invoke R:Code from the mighty R> prompt. 

Use the SET EDITOR ExternalEditorName command.

SET EDITOR ExternalEditorName specifies which file to execute
when the RBEdit command is issued. You may include the path
if necessary.

Basically, SET EDITOR allows you to specify what text editor you
would like to use to edit your R:BASE command files. This setting
returns to the default when you restart R:BASE unless you add the
EDITOR ExternalEditorName line to your RBASE.CFG after the
second ;Misc heading (around line 90).

Example:

The following example sets the Editor to be the Windows Notepad.
Then edits the Readme.txt file.

SET EDITOR C:\WINDOWS\NOTEPAD.EXE
RBE README.TXT

Some features are only available using the standard R:BASE editor,
such as Data Dictionary (F3) key, etc.

The Magical R:BASE 7.0 for Windows includes the GUI, new RBEDIT
with the same features like R:Code and MORE ... ( Data Dictionary,
Command Syntax,  Command Highlighter, Code Analyzer, R:Style,
Bookmarks and Save As: RTF, HTML )

Have Fun!

Very Best Regards,

Razzak.
