A simple way to erase just under and around the text,
print the string twice; the first time, thick and of
the desired background color, the second time, thin.
Quality of the result is mixed; it depends a lot on
the font and font size.

xyouts, x, y, the_string, charsize=1.5, charthick=9, color=255
xyouts, x, y, the_string, charsize=1.5, charthick=1, color=0
