You can get an idea how you might do it by looking at the MIF file format.  
MIF fully describes a MapInfo file, and it's all text.

Since MI map feature objects vary in content, you'll need to design a text 
string with delimiters in it and figure out what you'll do should the data 
content exceed the size of the string (imagine a complex region's objext, 
for example.)
