I have haven't neen following this thread but:

1. if RGoogleDocs_0.2-2.tar.gz is a source distribution (as
opposed to built source) then the first line renames it so
that its not the same name as the built file about to be created.
The second line detars it into the RGoogleDocs directory.  The third builds
the built source file, RGoogleDocs_0.2-2.tar.gz.  The fourth
installs the built source file into R.  I've assumed Windows.
If you are on Linux replace rename with mv.

rename RGoogleDocs_0.2-2.tar.gz RgoogleDocs_0.2.2-src.tar.gz
tar xvfz RgoogleDocs_0.2.2-src.tar.gz
Rcmd build RGoogleDocs
Rcmd INSTALL RGoogleDocs_0.2-2.tar.gz

or

2. if RGoogleDocs_0.2-2.tar.gz is already a built source file then you
can just issue the last of the above lines and don't need
the others.
