Recently I had asked if a point could be erased from a TEK4014 screen.
I recieved an overwhelming response of NO!!!!! It seems because the 
4014 is a DVST that is does not use rasters, and thus there is no memory
inside to fu-- with and erase points. I wrote back to many saying WRONG!
Well it is I who might be wrong. The program 2020 does seem to erase
points, but it blinks while doing it. But it also blinks while drawing.
So maybe it is erasing and redrawing at an incredible rate. Anyway,
don't take my word from it, because I am far from an expert on TEK
internals.
