* A network activity light for the Raspberry Pi, using an LED connected to a GPIO pin.
* Based on hddled.c - http://members.optusnet.com.au/foonly/whirlpool/code/hddled.c -
* This program uses the WiringPi library by Gordon Henderson - http://wiringpi.com/ - Thanks, Gordon!
*
*
* To compile:
* gcc -Wall -O3 -o netledPi netledPi.c -lwiringPi
*
* Options:
* -d, --detach Detach from terminal (become a daemon)
* -p, --pin=VALUE GPIO pin (using wiringPi numbering scheme) where LED is connected (default: 11)
* -r, --refresh=VALUE Refresh interval (default: 20 ms)
*
* GPIO pin ----|>|----[330]----+
* LED |
* ===
* Ground
*
* Default LED Pin - wiringPi pin 11 is BCM_GPIO 7, physical pin 25 on the Pi's P1 header.
* Note: This pin is also used for the SPI interface. If you have SPI add-ons connected,
* you'll have to use the -p option to change it to another, unused pin.
