The README convention probably follows the famous scene inLewis Carroll's "Alice's Adventures In Wonderland" in whichAlice confronts magic munchies labelled "Eat Me" and "DrinkMe".readme fileA text file copied onto software distribution disks that contains last-minute updates or errata that have not been printed in the documentation manual. |
