CP/M, originally standing for Control Program/Monitor and later Control Program for Microcomputers. It's an operating system for 8-bit computers. It looks rather like DOS to use this is hardly surprising because DOS was copied from CP/M in about 1980.
CP/M comes/came in three main versions; 1.4, 2.2 and 3.1. v2.2 was the basis of MSDOS, while v3.1 evolved into DRDOS and OpenDOS / DR-DOS.
There were also 8086 and 68000 versions of CP/M. CP/M-86 evolved into DOS Plus, Concurrent DOS and REAL/32.
CP/M was developed by Dr. Gary Kildall from Digital Research. CP/M as a first system, which used standard 8.3 (8 characters for file name + 3 characters for file extension used to identify file type) naming of files. Killdall can be considered as father of file extensions.
The CP/M software seems to be old or discontinued.
