The plugin dialog can be treated like the R console itself. So whatever 
commands you would type into R, you can do in manageR (just make sure 
you use '<-' when assigning variables etc. as manageR doesn't like you 
to use '='). I have an updated manageR version which, in addition to 
making it easier to load spatial data, also makes it very easy to save R 
spatial objects as shapefiles and automatically load them into QGIS. 
This will be up on my repository soon (I will post a notice to this list 
when it is).

As for directions on how to use manageR, I have not really come up with 
anything yet, but I will try to post something soon with a basic how to 
and some screen shots or something.

Hope this is enough to get you started!
