I wonder if that should go to the Rcpp-FAQ instead of Rcpp-package?
I believe in the dictatorial approach-- your vision, you decide.

+Alternately, one can work directly with the package structure.
Changes to \proglange{C++} code can be compiled and tested from
the command line via:

+The second command calls 'r' (littler), not 'R'. Littler is an
alternative front end to GNU R designed for '#!' (hashbang)
scripting. It has fast start-up times and gives a guaranteed clean
slate. The -l option calls 'library(mypkg)' before executing the
\proglang{R} expression. Littler is available via most Linux
distribution's package management systems. The project homepage is
