There is an error when I try to execute the command for setting Configuration of Rtools for Rstan.
Description:
I'm installing RStan on Windows using this guide https://github.com/stan-dev/rstan/wiki/Installing-RStan-on-Windows On the stage of Configuration I've got an error.

file = file.path(Sys.getenv("HOME"), ".Rprofile"),
sep = "\n", append = TRUE)
