[R] saving an R script

Most of us use an editor of some kind to write our code. I use Notepad++ but there are many options. In this way, you simply write your code in a text file and save it.

Some editors allow for you to execute your code from the script.

Greetings,

This is a super embarrassing question. But, how do you save an R script with code? that is, not doing it the cheat way? where you just hit the "save" button? what function would it be?

I know how to save the environment in code:

save.image(file='myEnvironment.RData')
quit(save='no')
load('myEnvironment.RData')

But how would I do the same thing with a script? rather than the environment?

David
