Dear R experts,

On shutting down a device with dev.off(), the number and name of the new active 
device is returned/printed. How can this be prevented from being shown? Is 
there something like a 'quiet'-mode?
Like any other expression, if you assign the result to a variable, it won't be printed. So

x <- dev.off()

would work.

If you don't want to waste a variable name, you can achieve the non-printing by wrapping the call in invisible():

invisible(dev.off())

will return the result with printing turned off.
