What is "the file method"? How do I treat GPIO connections as file paths? Somewhere in /proc?

Earlier you wrote:

The stack script isn't very big, and perhaps I'm just pre-coffee but I couldn't find anything there about sudo.

Where should I be looking?

I would imagine so, but in Python it's easy because someone wrote a component for GPIO. I haven't looked into this deeply so forgive my ignorance, but how does GPIO present itself to an application? A sort of named pipe, or serial I/O, or....?
