Cromemco DOS orCDOS (an abbreviation forCromemco Disk Operating System) is aCP/M-like[1]operating system byCromemco[3] designed to allow users of Cromemcomicrocomputer systems to create and manipulate disk files using symbolic names.[4]
CDOS was written inZilog Z80machine code. Due to the number of available programs available to run underDigital ResearchCP/M at that time, CDOS was designed to be upwards CP/M-compatible. Many programs written for CP/M versions up to and including version 1.33 run without modification under CDOS. However, programs written for CDOS generally do not run under CP/M.[5]
