[R] Question regarding QT device

[Prof Brian Ripley]

grDevices::deviceIsInteractive is only in the unreleased R-devel version 
of R: which version are you using?

Please do study the R posting guide: we do ask for basic information for a 
good reason, and do ask for questions on packages (especially unreleased 
packages) to be sent to the maintainer.
