Here is a login.sql that does the trick (you'll probably want to change the parameter, though):

column async noprint new_value async_prompt; set heading off;
select decode(value,'TRUE','ASYNC','NOASYNC') async from v$parameter where name = 'async_write';
set heading on;
set sqlprompt "&async_prompt SQL> "
column async clear
