Seeing stdio output on Adafruit QT Py RP2040

[ATMakersBill]

I folks,

First, thanks for this project. I am following it with interest because it may make for very interesting assistive technology project like the Intellikeys adapter with far fewer parts and simpler code. http://atmakers.org/intellikeys/intellikeys-adapter-beta-program/

With that in mind, I've made a board with a wonderful footprint that just has a QT Py RP2040, two resistors and a female jack. Here's a photo

I have gotten this project to compile with the PICO_BOARD set to adafruit_qtpy_rp2040 and I've loaded the .UF2 file for the HID capture example on the device. However, I cannot seem to get the output (not even the "Hello!") on the USB output.

Did I miss a step? Do I need to enable the TinyUSB STDIO code? I'm stuck and I was making such great progress :-/

Thanks
Bill
