The BMB file extension was also used for bounding box information belonging to SLICS, a chess program.
BMB files are auxiliary files for SLICS and are not normally useful independently of that software. The format is most likely obsolete.
Open a BMB file with the SLICS chess program that created it, if that software is available. Because the file stores supporting information, it may not display meaningful content when opened on its own.
BMB files are supporting information for SLICS and are not normally converted independently.
