What is MSClaio2008?  I don't quite understand this bit.  If you provide 
code examples, then questions are often easier to answer.

Yes, you can do these things in R.  The functions you want are: 
chisq.test for the chi-square test
ks.test  for the kolmogorov-smirnoff test.

You can view the help pages for these functions by typing a question mark 
before the function name, e.g. ?chisq.test.

For the Cramer-von Mises tests, I didn't know, so I typed 
RSiteSearch("cramer von mises test"), from which there are several 
suggestions.  In particular, look at the CvM2SL1Test and CvM2SL2Test 
packages.
