I have regular jobs that I run with scripts like this:

R --no-save > normalization_stats.log <<EOF 
source('normalization_stats.R',echo=T)
EOF

R output goes to the log file and, if you use --save instead of
--no-save, an .Rdata file will be saved and you could look at
that in the morning, or after coffee, or whenever.
