  \code{bringToTop} brings the specified screen device's window to the
  front of the window stack (and gives it focus).  With first argument
  \code{-1} it brings the console to the top.

  If \code{stay =  TRUE}, the window is designated as a topmost window,
  i.e.\sspace{}it will stay on top of any regular window.  \code{stay} may only be used
  when Rgui is run in SDI mode.  This corresponds to the \dQuote{Stay on top}
  popup menu item in Rgui.
