Can anyone explain how MIF represents a polygon with holes? Can holes have
holes? I remembered from somewhere in the distant past that the first
polygon in a region is always an outer boundary written in one direction
(let's say counter-clockwise) and holes are represented by succeeding
polygons in the region stored in the opposite direction (let's say
counter-clockwise). But when I actually looked at some MIF files today and
it looks like the ordering of the first polygon is usually but not always in
one direction. I looked at Bill's MID/MID doc but it didn't mention holes.

Thanks.
