A fat binary (or multiarchitecture binary) is a computer executable program or library which has been expanded (or "fattened") with code native to multiple instruction sets which can consequently be run on multiple processor types.

CP/M and DOS

Combined COM-style binaries for CP/M-80 and DOS

CP/M-80, MP/M-80, Concurrent CP/M, CP/M Plus, Personal CP/M-80, SCP and MSX-DOS executables for the Intel 8080 (and Zilog Z80) processor families use the same .COM file extension as DOS-compatible operating systems for Intel 8086 binaries.
