On a Unix like system you can do `nice +19 R' or perhaps `nice +19 R CMD BATCH commands.R'.
At least on Suse (9.1) and Debian (3.0) Linux, the syntax is `nice -19 R' (i.e. with `-', not `+'.)
The syntax depends on the shell you use: tcsh for example works as Roger says, and the `nice' executable as you say.
