Monk programs are data pusher programs who resemble Real life Monks, they're one of the many inhabitants of the ENCOM Mainframe.
History[]
Various Monk Programs were seen walking around the grid, either having conversations with each other or being seen in crowded areas. Two Monk Programs steadily dodged a Recognizer controlled by Kevin Flynn along with other programs, and two other Monk programs avoided being crushed by the Recognizer being controlled by Kevin Flynn, though they initiated in a conversation with each other after Flynn was ejected from the Recognizer he was controlling. Flynn announced to programs nearby (including the Monk programs) that he was fine, but the Monk programs seemed to not have heard Flynn speaking, as they were still busy talking to each other. A quartet of Monk programs were also seen interacting with each other while Flynn ventured out into the area he crashed the Recognizer.
