Gabor has suggested what I think is the best way to do this check, but
in my experience, if you are doing this check then you are almost
certainly missing some feature of R that will let you avoid doing it.
For graphs, dev.new() has been mentioned. I would be curious to know
when people find it necessary to do this check, other than to issue a
system() command for some very specialized local system reason (i.e.
something that would never be used in a package and rarely in code run
on different computers - not just different OSs).
