I get the same style of path as Hadley.  This is on Windows 7 Home Premium with

I start R by clicking on the R-2.31.0 icon.

I'd assumed that it was a change that came with R-2.13.0!
(On 32-bit Windows XP, which I have just checked, I do indeed get the 8.3 
paths.)

R.home()
[1] "C:/Programs/R/R-2.13.0"


No, you got the same as Duncan: This is 8.3 compatible.

Isn't R.home() 8.3 path anyway?

I don't think so:

R.home("bin")
[1] "C:/Program Files/R/R-2.13.0/bin/i386"

Weird.  Like others, I see 8.3 pathnames.  R gets those from a Windows call; 
what version of Windows are you using?
