// Example program for bcm2835 library
// Shows how to use PWM to control GPIO pins
//
// After installing bcm2835, you can build this 
// with something like:
// gcc -o pwm pwm.c -l bcm2835 
// sudo ./pwm
//
// Or you can test it before installing with:
// gcc -o pwm -I ../../src ../../src/bcm2835.c pwm.c
// sudo ./pwm
//
// Connect an LED between GPIO18 (pin 12) and GND to observe the LED changing in brightness
