g-file

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 files.

   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.
