Hi John,

I had a similar problem: I couldn't find a program with which I could load and 
display tracks including distances. In my case I had the additional problem 
that I wanted to draw and save these tracks myself.

I then looked at the code of foxtrotgps and made a few changes:

- when loading lat/lon lists the distances per waypoint are displayed on the 
terminal
- when measuring a multi-point distance, each point with distance is copied to 
the clipboard (instead of only the last point)

The first point would be interesting for you, even if no bearing is calculated. 
Unfortunately I didn't get any feedback from foss-gps if these additional 
functions are wanted and so I never made an attempt to get this change applied 
to "the original foxtrotgps".

If you can program by yourself, you can have a look at my changes. So when 
loading tacks you might be able to quickly add the desired calculations by 
yourself:

kind regards
