[R-gui] always on top

[Philippe Grosjean]

Hello,

This trick works on Windows (only) and does not require any additional 
components:

library(tcltk)
top <- tktoplevel()
if (.Platform$OS.type == "windows") {
     tcl("wm", "attributes", top, topmost = 1)
	
     # You may also be interested by this one:
     tcl("wm", "attributes", top, toolwindow = 1)
}

Best,

Philippe Grosjean
