R doesn't ship with a standard graphical user interface (well maybe it 
does but I've never seen it).  We add a trivial R.desktop file which just 
launches R in an xterm which is 'good enough' here...

http://wiki.r-project.org/rwiki/doku.php?id=tips:using-gui:find_gui lists 
several GUIs which may be more useful than just launching R in a 
terminal.
