In IDL version 1 (VMS), on my dumb Tek 4100 terminal, I used to just

set_viewport, [where you want the first one]
surface, [...]
!noeras = 1
set_viewport, [...]
surface, [...]
...
!noeras = 0

Don't know about !p.multi or X windows, don't have version 2 yet, and just
moved to suns...Good luck with it.
