 Usage

- $ cycfx2prog -id=vvvv:pppp prg:<device>.ihx reset run delay:100
+Copy the generated *.fw file for your device (e.g. fx2lafw-saleae-logic.fw)
+into the $prefix/share/sigrok-firmware directory (create it, if needed).
+
+Replace $prefix with the install prefix of sigrok, e.g. /usr or /usr/local.
+
+Example (assuming /usr/local as $prefix):
+
+  $ sudo mkdir /usr/local/share/sigrok-firmware
 
-You have to provide the USB VID/PID of the FX2 device (before firmware
-upload) using the -id parameter.
+  $ sudo cp hw/saleae-logic/build/fx2lafw-saleae-logic.fw \
+            /usr/local/share/sigrok-firmware
 
-Replace <device>.ihx with the respective .ihx file from the
-hw/*/build/ directory, e.g. hw/saleae-logic/build/fx2lafw-saleae-logic.ihx.
+The sigrok frontends (command-line or GUI) will automatically search for
+firmware files there and automatically use/upload them.
