You would therefore be asking mkgmap to generate a TYP file for any osmc
symbols it encounters.
In theory, this should not be a problem but you would still have to merge it
with your own TYP file and deal with any conflict of type numbers - again,
this could be possible.
I've had to create a style file which caters for most eventualities , both
in POIs and Lines.
You could reduce the number of pois by using a layering system with pois
plotted on top of each other using transparency.
Interestingly, Waymarked Trail Hiking
<a class="moz-txt-link-rfc2396E" href="http://hiking.waymarkedtrails.org/help/rendering/osmc"><http://hiking.waymarkedtrails.org/help/rendering/osmc></a> has had to make
some compromises when generating its symbols.
