Speaking of names, the best (most descriptive) program
name I ever r
across was the CP/M debugger, DDT.
Indeed! In fact, IIRC, it was advertised as, "DDT - kills bugs dead"

I remember using a debugger called DDT under TOPS-10 on the DEC PDP-10
before there was anything called CP/M.
I've used DDT on PDP-8s (OS8), PDP-10s and 11s before CP/m existed.
However, Kildall was largely inspired by DEC OSs, hence DDT, PIP, dir,
REName, TYPE to name a few.
