Can we interrupt R to ask something to the user though the GUI?
Determine if R code execution can be interrupted by the GUI, e.g., using a
modal dialog box. It depends both on R being in interactive() mode and the
ask flag of the GUI being set to TRUE.
dont_ask(gui = .GUI) dontAsk(gui = .GUI)

dontAsk and dont_ask are aliases.
TRUE if the GUI cannot interrupt R. The function triggering the
dialog box should then not be displayed and it should return the default
value as the result. The function returns TRUE if R is run in a non
interactive session, or if ask is set to FALSE for the GUI, or if it is
not specified (ask is NULL) then getOptions("gui.ask") is used.
# What is the current state for the default GUI? dont_ask()
