Hi all!
I'm just writing a small Ghidra importer exporter for the csv format, and I realized that the csv format is currently not well defined.

In most of the script, the csv delimiter is set to delimiter=" ", however, some of the csv files you provide as example do not follow this format, e.g.: https://github.com/seemoo-lab/polypyus/blob/master/firmware/history/20739-polypyus-export.csv

For the ghidra importer/exporter, which delimiter should I assume?

Ghidra is not the only free and open source reverse engineering tool available. Another popular one is Radare2, a highly-portable cross-platform reverse engineering framework and a toolkit without dependencies. It has support for analyzing binaries, disassembling code, debugging programs, attaching to remote GDB/LLDB, WinDbg servers, rich plugin system (see r2pm), and integration with various decompilers. For example, ghidra decompiler plugin - r2ghidra-dec. It is actively developed and can be easily integrated in various open source and commercial products. I believe, it will be highly beneficial to support these and provide a package for install from r2pm, see the package repository here: https://github.com/radareorg/radare2-pm

For documentation on writing plugins for radare2 see Scripting and Plugins Radare2 Book chapters.

Cutter is a crossplatform Qt/C++ GUI frontend to radare2:

For documentation on writing plugins for Cutter see the official tutorial and the curated list of various popular plugins.

With the support of Binary Ninja and Radare2/Cutter, plus existing IDA Pro and Ghidra, you will cover most of the usage cases for heterogeneous teams.

Binary Ninja is a popular reverse engineering platform for static and dynamic binary analysis, disassembly, decompilation (WIP, almost done), rich system of extensions and plugins. It would amazing to support it in the program too. Especially it will be helpful to coordinate work in teams, where different members prefer different reversing instruments.

In the readme it is stated that the exported functions can be imported into IDA. How can this be accomplished? Do you use an own IDAPython script or can this IDA by default? Does also a workflow exist to import the functions into Ghidra?

Thanks for your help and kind regards,
Nikolas
