The Amstrad CP/M Plus character set (alternatively known as PCW character set or ZX Spectrum +3 character set) is any of a group of 8-bit character sets introduced by Amstrad/Locomotive Software for use in conjunction with their adaptation of Digital Research's CP/M Plus[1] on various Amstrad CPC / Schneider CPC and Amstrad PCW / Schneider Joyce machines.[2][3] The character set was also used on the Amstrad ZX Spectrum +3 version of CP/M.[1]
At least on the ZX Spectrum +3 it existed in eight language-specific variants (based on ISO/IEC 646) depending on the selected locale of the system: USA (default), France, Germany, UK, Denmark, Sweden, Italy and Spain.[4]
Another slight variant of the character set was used by LocoScript.[5][6]
