[mkgmap-dev] question reg. exits

Tue May 19 15:36:55 BST 2015

That's very interesting. I didn't know about the exit:to tag and apparently
nobody else does either because taginfo shows zero occurrences of it.

Taginfo also shows 381 uses of exit_to:left and 334 uses of exit_to:right
so perhaps that's something to look at also.
