Why didn't you say so in the first place?  ;-)

If you treat the contents of the variable as a list delimited by Chr(13)&Chr(10), then 
you can loop over the list and generate corresponding html.

NOTE: untested code follows...

<cfoutput>
<cfloop index="curfilename" list="#ReadMe#" delimiter="#Chr(13)&Chr(10)#">
<cfinput name="selectedfiles" type="checkbox" value="#curfilename#"> #curfilename#<br >
</cfloop>
</cfoutput>

This way, when you post the data, you'll have a single form variable called 
"selectedfiles" passed with a comma-delimited list of filenames that were checked...

Apply this knowledge!  Keep digging!  ;-)
