    If having the points associated with the polygon that surrounds the core box would be helpful, you could process the coordinates that come back from 'dbGet top.fplan.rows.box'.  For instance:

    unset -nocomplain polys points
    foreach rect [dbGet top.fplan.rows.box] {
      foreach {llx lly urx ury} $rect {break}
      foreach x [list $llx $urx] {
        foreach y [list $lly $ury] {
          if {! [info exists points($x,$y)]} {
            set points($x,$y) 0
          } else {
            incr points($x,$y)
          }
        }
      }
    }
    foreach xy [array names points] {
      if {$points($xy) == 0} {
        lappend polys [split $xy ,]
      }
    }


    ...Now the 'polys' list contains the points corresponding to the core polygon.
