}}The '''Amstrad CP/M Plus character set''' (alternatively known as '''PCW character set''' or '''ZX Spectrum +3 character set''') refersis toany 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]]<ref name="Plus3CPM"/> on various [[Amstrad CPC]] / [[Schneider CPC]] and [[Amstrad PCW]] / [[Schneider Joyce]]<!-- PCW 8000, PCW 9256, PCW 10, PCW 9512, PCW 9512+ --> machines.<ref name="Elliott_2015_XBIOS"/><ref name="AT_CPMPlus_CS"/> The character set was also utilizedused on the [[Amstrad ZX Spectrum +3]] sinceversion 1987of CP/M.<ref name="Plus3CPM"/>

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), withFrance, ''languageGermany, 0'' beingUK, theDenmark, defaultSweden, Italy forand "US"Spain.<ref name="Plus3Language"/>

Another slight variant of the character set was used by [[LocoScript]].<ref name="Elliott_2016_LS1Format"/><ref name="AT_LogoScriptAT_LocoScript"/>

What happens in the other language versions is that certain codes in the first half of the character set (0...127) are associated with characters that are in the second half of the US character set and vice versa. In fact a straight swap is made between the code used for the special language character, and the character it substitutes. For example, in the US character set, the code for £ is #A3: when English is selected, £ replaces # as the character with code #23 - and # replaces £ as the character with code #A3.
