Here's my problem:
I have a general shape stored in a RgnHandle. For
instance, it could be a donut shape originally created by dragging
out two concentric circles and defining the area between them as
the region, but I really don't know anything about the nature of
the region.

I want to be able to take this arbitrary shape and drag it out to
an arbitrary size (ala MacDraw).  I have looked at MapRgn() and
InsetRgn() and neither routine gives me just what I'm looking for.
(Of course, I may just be doing them wrong.)  If ANYONE can come
up with suggestions for how to implement this, I'd be eternally
gratefull.

Thanx in advance.

-Eric
