%X In \[dq]On the Expressiveness of CSP\[dq], Roscoe provides a
   construction that, given the operational semantics rules of
   a CSP\-like language and a process in that language,
   constructs a strongly bisimilar CSP process. Unfortunately,
   the construction provided is difficult to use and the
   scripts produced cannot be compiled by the CSP
   model\-checker, FDR. In this paper, we adapt Roscoe\[rs]s
   simulation to make it produce a process that can be checked
   relatively efficiently by FDR. Further, we extend
   Roscoe\[rs]s simulation in order to allow recursively
   defined processes to be simulated in FDR, which was not
   supported by the original simulation. We also describe the
   construction of a tool that can automatically construct the
   simulation, given the operational semantics of the language
   and a script to simulate, both in an easy\-to\-use format.
