I checked out the links John suggested -- thanks John -- but I still can't
figure out how to start R in Vim.

After taking the previously mentioned steps (installing Python), I've now
extracted all the files in vim-r-plugin-110805.zip file into my vimfiles
folder.

Windows merged identical folders (e.g. the autoload, bitmap, ftplugin
folders that came with vim-r-plugin-110805.zip) and added a new folder
called r-plugin.

So my C:\Users\Sean\vimfiles folder looks like this:

└───vimfiles
    ├───autoload
    ├───bitmaps
    ├───bundle
    │   └───nerdtree
    │       ├───doc
    │       ├───nerdtree_plugin
    │       └───plugin
    ├───colors
    │   └───plugin
    ├───compiler
    ├───doc
    ├───ftdetect
    ├───ftplugin
    ├───indent
    ├───keymap
    ├───plugin
    ├───r-plugin
    └───syntax

Still, nothing happens, aside from invoking the error bell, when I type \rf
(which is supposed to start R) in Vim.

After extracting vim-r-plugin-110805.zip, does anybody know what I should do
next?
