+@cindex translation
+If you have a configuration file for another hardware debugger(Abatron,
+BDI2000, BDI3000, Lauterbach, Segger, MacRaigor, etc.), translating
+it into OpenOCD syntax is often quite straightforward. The most tricky
+part of creating a configuration script is oftentimes the reset init
+sequence where e.g. PLLs, DRAM and the like is set up.
+
+One trick that you can use when translating is to write small
+Tcl proc's to translate the syntax into OpenOCD syntax. This
+can avoid manual translation errors and make it easier to
+convert other scripts later on.
+
+Example of transforming quirky arguments to a simple search and
+replace job:
+
+@example
+# rewrite commands of the form below to arm11 mcr...
+#
+#   Lauterbach syntax(?)
+#
+#	Data.Set c15:0x042f %long 0x40000015
+#
+#   OpenOCD syntax when using procedure below.
+#
+#   setc15 0x01 0x00050078
+#
+#
+proc setc15 @{regs value@} @{
+	global TARGETNAME

+	echo [format "set p15 0x%04x, 0x%08x" $regs $value] 
+
+	arm11 mcr $TARGETNAME 15 [expr ($regs>>12)&0x7] [expr ($regs>>0)&0xf] [expr ($regs>>4)&0xf] [expr ($regs>>8)&0x7] $value
