if you are in ND and MAP mode, setting the HDG bug to runway heading (the number) or set HDG bug to your Heading Pointer ?????
A "climb straight ahead then ..." clearance is to initially maintain runway extended centreline (i.e. a track). Therefore, the general Boeing answer to this is to use TO/GA, because this will provide the AP/FD with steering commands to maintain ground track. When airborne, you can align the HDG SEL to the achieved heading as you wish.
