CP/M (Control Program for Microcomputers) is an operating system that was widely used in the late 1970s and early 1980s for microcomputers. Developed by Gary Kildall of Digital Research, CP/M was notable for being one of the first operating systems to become widely adopted in the personal computer market before the rise of MS-DOS and later Windows. CP/M software refers to a range of applications developed to run on the CP/M operating system.
