more info needed

Hello @gsuberland

Unfortunately, the description isn't detailed enough.

I found that adding a section to 8051.ldefs file is also needed, I tried my best but still don't know if that's right.

  <language processor="Cypress FX2"
            endian="big"
            size="16"
            variant="default"
            version="2.0"
            slafile="8051.sla"
            processorspec="cypress_fx2.pspec"
            id="8051:BE:16:fx2">
    <description>8051 Cypress FX2</description>
    <compiler name="Cypress FX2" spec="8051.cspec" id="default"/>
  </language>

You wrote that the java script has to be run, but I don't know where. Should I compile the .java file and then run it in the console, or load it inside ghidra somehow?

Thank you for your answers J.

Yeah, sorry, I must've missed the ldefs step. My language definition in 8051.ldefs is as follows:

  <language processor="8051"
            endian="big"
            size="16"
            variant="fx2"
            version="2.0"
            slafile="8051.sla"
            processorspec="cypress_fx2.pspec"
            manualindexfile="../manuals/8051.idx"
            id="8051:BE:16:fx2">
    <description>Cypress FX2</description>
    <compiler name="default" spec="8051.cspec" id="default"/>
    <external_name tool="IDA-PRO" name="8051"/>
  </language>

Ghidra has a scripting engine. In the Code Browser go to Window -> Script Manager. You can copy the Java file into Ghidra\Processors\8051\ghidra_scripts\ or any other of your script paths. Alternatively you can click the New Script button, select Java, then and paste in the contents manually.

I've now clarified the install procedure in the readme.
