Another way, if I remember correctly without being at a computer, is to just
see if the main window evals:
mainWin = maya.mel.eval("$temp1=$gMainWindow")
If mainWin is blank then you are not in a gui. You can also do it with the api,
to get a main window ref. but I dont have the docs in front of me.
