Using GPSd for Windows the GPS heading arrow is shifted by 90° in GMapCatcher #332

Many thanks for this excellent and very useful program.

When using GPSd for Windows in GMapCatcher the GPS marker shows the good 
position but the arrow inside the marker is shifted by 90° (example: when 
heading south the arrow points to the east).

Windows 7 Starter
GMapCatcher version 0.7.7.2
GPSd for Windows version 0.2.0.0.

Best regards

I can also confirm this on *buntu 12.04.

I'll start looking into this when I have the time...

the problem might me in: def gps_direction
we are making our own calculation to get the direction.
Instead we should be reading the direction directly form the gps:
self.track = NaN            # Degrees from true north

should be fixed now in r1268

Needs a bit more work to change still, but it's a start...
