However it has been run on a touch-screen computer, years ago, in my Jeep.  I did some tweaks to allow some sorts of operations to be easier.  It isn't super-easy to use with a touch-screen interface, but it can be done.  There are a few #define's that can be enabled when compiling to change how some of the stuff works.
