The penplot routines in the fixes directory (on 5.5T vaxstation), will
not refresh when uncovered. Also, when the screen-saver kicks in, it
will not redraw afterwards.

Fix:
a) Stand around when long programs are executing to wiggle mouse and
prevent screensaver from kicking in.
b) Use xset to set timeout to an ungodly time (xset s 30000 )
