   I was a real Deb-o-Phile in college... When my father saw her he asked   
   'Who is the little weasel?'  He wasn't being cruel since she was small,   
   thin, and had pointed features. Unluckily for her it stuck and she became   
   The Weasel.   
      
   I'm running Bookworm, sort of. Raspberry Pi OS is derived from it.

   A little different approach. Might have been coincidental but the .NET   
   application did blink the LED for a while before the Pi sort of locked up.   
   I think it got hot an throttled.   
      
   I haven't played with it yes but I installed WiringPi.

   There are also a couple of Python libraries. Raspberry's version GpioZero   
   is the one they recommend but gpiod is a little faster. The problem with   
   gpiod is the Pi 5 has a new southbridge structure so anything written for   
   earlier versions has to be updated. gpiozero is included in the OS install   
   and takes that into acount.   
      
   Note: this is for i/o programming on the Pi itself, not the pico.
