And you also need to add C:\Program Files\R\R-2.10.1\bin\ (or whatever
version of R you end up installing) to PATH enviroment variable.

Paolo, can you or someone from Faunalia add this information to HR
plugin wiki [0] ? I think it is quite frequent source of errors.

And also, is there any way how to navigate from Animove web [1] to the
wiki [0]? There are some links to the old wiki [2] and trac [3] but I
find it very easy to get lost between all those sites without ever
reaching [0].
