I was looking at the gpsdrive 2.10pre4 display and notioed
the word "Heading" being used. I think this word will be
needed when compass output will also be available and is
probably being used instead of "track", as in made good
a.k.a. "course" stateside. Heading can only come from a
compass or celestial nav (possibly including satellites but
in a different context). I'm on thin ice being a gps noob
but I have done some nav here and there including bubble
sextants & pencil shadows on a Jeppeson.
Just an idea.
