g-file n.   [Commodore BBS culture] Any file that is written    with the intention of being read by a human rather than a machine,    such as the Jargon File, documentation, humor files, hacker lore,    and technical materials.          This term survives from the nearly forgotten Commodore 64    underground and BBS community. In the early 80s, C-Net had emerged    as the most popular C64 BBS software for systems which encouraged    messaging (as opposed to file transfer).   There were three main    options for files: Program files (p-files), which served the same    function as `doors' in today's systems, UD files (the user    upload/download section), and g-files.   Anything that was meant to    be read was included in g-files.
