MIKBUG is a ROM monitor from Motorola for the Motorola 6800 8-bit microprocessor. The MIKBUG Tape Format is a hex dump that includes a two-digit checksum for every line. If you make a mistake entering the line, MIKBUG will catch it and cause the terminal to print a question mark. In order to proceed, again enter an L command and retype the line in question
Other monitors (SWTBUG, Smartbug) designed to be compatible with MIKBUG should recognize MIKBUG Tape Format and work in a similar manner.
