dev.list() gives the list of current device numbers and dev.cur() gives
which one is "ACTIVE"
eg

R> l<-dev.list()
R> act<-paste(l,"(inactive)")
R> act[match(dev.cur(),l)]<-paste(dev.cur(),"(ACTIVE)")
R> paste("R Graphics Device:",act)
[1] "R Graphics Device: 2 (inactive)" "R Graphics Device: 3 (ACTIVE)"
