“Everything is a file” is what made me start understanding linux few years ago and from there it got easier to use with each new concept.
Still this was really revolutionary to me when I first heard it. Made a bunch of things just click.

eeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeew scoots faaaar away from you actually when writing the prior comment, i was thinking about the ease that is doing what i described on plan9, there everything is in fact a file, which you can simply mount via the 9p protocol
what mumblerfish suggests looks interesting and i would have to read some the man page of “nc”, i suppose…
