[Gmsh] Physical points

[Martin Vymazal]

Hello,

 I'd like to know if there's a way to force Gmsh to use certain points
that define my geometry to become also mesh points.
 My (2D) domain is a physical surface that contains one hole. This hole is
defined by a physical line (spline, in fact) that passes through a large
number of points. I'd like to use only some of these points as mesh
nodes. I thought that making certain points 'physical' does the job, but
apparently this doesn't work.
 I know I could mesh my lines using 'progression' or 'bump', but this
doesn't give me the node distribution that I want.

 Thanks for any help,
