- Find some POIs to select from
- browse through them; naturally highlight the one you wish to start on.
- Open the [Edit Route] window
- Try and add that 1st POI to the route list. click click click click.
  You can't- re-clicking/double-clicking on the POI should add it to the
  list, not just when there is a change of POI.

yes

to get the angle see new forward_azimuth and back_azimuth variables from
inv_geosedic() in gpsmisc.c. (radians +CW from North)
