Here's a pretty convenient function I picked up somewhere and adjusted a little. Might be nice to keep in the directory.

list.objects <- function(env = .GlobalEnv) 
{
    if(!is.environment(env)){
        env <- deparse(substitute(env))
        stop(sprintf('"%s" must be an environment', env))
    }
    obj.type <- function(x) class(get(x, envir = env))
    foo <- sapply(ls(envir = env), obj.type)
    object.name <- names(foo)
    names(foo) <- seq(length(foo))
    dd <- data.frame(CLASS = foo, OBJECT = object.name, 
                     stringsAsFactors = FALSE)
    dd[order(dd$CLASS),]
}

> x <- 1:5
> d <- data.frame(x)
> list.objects()
#        CLASS       OBJECT
# 1 data.frame            d
# 2   function list.objects
# 3    integer            x 
> list.objects(env = x)
# Error in list.objects(env = x) : "x" must be an environment
