CONVERSION of FON POI data to TomTom OV2 format

by Legiers

Created on Januari 2008

This conversion is needed as long as the file provided by the FON maps is not specifying the
location of the FONspot inside the OV2 file.
The characters specified between brackets [] need to be used. Not the brackets itself!
