(4) CRT graphic screen
In graphic display control, there is a coordinate that shows which
position on the screen is to be displayed.
With the center of the screen as the origin, the +X direction is toward
the right of the screen and the +Y direction is toward the top of the
screen.
To draw graphics on the PMCMDI screen, the application program
must initialize the graphic display using the system all, pl_grpopen.
When the PMCMDI screen is switched to a non-PMCMDI screen, the
screen is cleared by the PMC control software.
