[Termes] se rapportant à un écran sur lequel un caractère (ou une image) est généré/regénéré à partir d'une mémoire en mode point. Celle-ci contient un bit pour chaque point affiché à l'écran et permet donc une très grande résolution, puisque chacun des points à l'écran est accessible. Le déplacement du faisceau de balayage servant à créer des caractères ou des symboles graphiques est assuré par un logiciel (ou micro-code) plutôt que par un générateur de caractères. 5, record 2, French, - en%20mode%20point
