It also seems John Elliott has a dedicated CP/M page with tons of info:

I never used CP/M, so I know little about it (beyond its obvious
pre-DOS status), but would this help??

LIBDSK is a library for accessing discs and disc image files. It is
intended for use in:

* Emulator tools - converting between real floppy discs and disc
images, as CPCTRANS / PCWTRANS do under DOS.
* Filesystem utilities - CPMTOOLS is configurable to use LIBDSK, thus
allowing the use of CPMTOOLS on emulator .DSK images. To do this,
install LIBDSK and then build CPMTOOLS, using "./configure
--with-libdsk". For CPMTOOLS 1.9 or 2.0, you will also need to apply
this patch.
* Emulators - it is possible to use LIBDSK as part of an emulator's
floppy controller emulation, thus giving the emulator transparent
access to .DSK files or real discs.
