There are at least three popular answers – Control Program for Microcomputers, Control Program for Microprocessors, and Control Program/Monitor. The issue is clouded by authors of popular CP/M books giving different answers. According to Gary Kildall (author of CP/M), in response to a this question on the PBS show “The Computer Chronicles” after Computer Bowl I, CP/M stands for Control Program for Microcomputers. This is also consistent with DRI documentation. See, p. 4 of the DRI TEX manual.
