     public static void main(String[] args) throws IOException, 
ScriptException {
         if(args.length == 1) {
             try {
                 String src = load(args[0]);
                 RenjinScriptEngine eng = new RenjinScriptEngine();
                 eng.eval(src);
             } catch(Exception ex) {
                 ex.printStackTrace();
             }
         } else {
             System.out.println("Usage: rr <r-source-file>");
         }
     }
}

It would obvious be better if Renjin command line worked, but
for some reason it does not work on VMS. So I wrote a little
wrapper reading the file and evaluating using the embedded
Renjin engine.
