Github parses and displays a readme.txt or readme.md file at the root of the repository.
I would like to create a similar readme file for a particular folder. Is there a way to accomplish this?
One ugly hack I thought of was to name the file _readmeme.md causing it to appear as the first file in the folder, and making it easy for users to find and click it. - it doesn't work, _README appears last and not first.

If you want to add a README to another folder, you can navigate to that folder and press the "Create new file" button. Just name the file README.md and you'll have the exact same editor available.
On GitHub you can do it this way: Go to the folder inside which you want to create another folder. Click on New file. On the text field for the file name, first write the folder name you want to create.
Yes, you can add, but the default name of the base file should be README.md , and later, add the URLs of different languages on the top of the README.md file so that users can switch to other languages.
GitHub already has this feature. Just put your README file in a subdirectory, and it will be displayed just like one in the root directory.
For example, see README.md for this subdirectory: http://github.com/larsbrinkhoff/lbForth/tree/master/targets
