Thanks for advice, the result of command says:

    title: "R Graphics: Device 2 (ACTIVE)"

So I tried:

    { NULL, NULL, "R Graphics: Device 2 (ACTIVE)", 0, True },

But it still doesn't work :( And the problem with "R Graphics: Device 2
(ACTIVE)"(assume if it works) is that 2 can be changed to other number, so I
have to create as much rules as the number range can be used, so it's not so
practical.
