readme.txt
Wikipedia on “README”:
A readme (or read me) file contains information about other files in a directory or archive and is very commonly distributed with computer software. Such a file is usually a text filecalled README.TXT, README.1ST, READ.ME, or simply README, although some Microsoft Windows software may occasionally include a README.WRI, README.RTF, orREADME.DOC. The name is chosen so that users unaware of the existence of this type of files would be drawn to read it. It is traditionally written in upper case so that on case-preserving environments using an ASCIIbetical ordering, the name will appear near the beginning of a directory listing (since upper-case letters sort before lower-case letters in ASCIIbetical ordering).
This is my picture of README.txt:
Got the photo from this month’s Computer Arts free CD, I always like to do something with the free stock photos they put on there!
