R help - Mar 2009 - R equivalent to MATLAB's "whos" Command?

 
By any chance is there an R equivalent to MATLAB's "whos" command?
 
I tried searching R and R-seek, but didn't really come up with anything.  
 
There are several items I would like to make sure are stored in the workspace
and check their values.
 
Thank you again for your help and any feedback.

Dear Jason,
How about this?

?ls()
ls()

HTH,

    whos = function(envir=parent.frame())
       print(sapply(ls(envir=envir), USE.NAMES=TRUE, get, envir=envir))

or simply

    whos = ls.str

and

    x = 1
    y = 2

    whos()
