An IDA plugin to display user-added comments in disassembly and pseudocode views.
This plugin is implemented based on hooking, meaning it can only capture and save the user-added comments after the plugin is installed.
Any user comments added prior to the installation of the plugin will not be captured.
The plugin is written in Python 3, and it's suitable for IDA 7.x versions that use Python 3. For IDA 8.x, please test it yourself.
Copy the UserComment.py file to the plugins folder in the IDA installation directory.
There are three ways to open the comment window:
- Choose 'View/Open subviews/Comments' from the menu
- Use the shortcut (Ctrl-Shift-C)
- Press
Ctrl-!, then choose "Comments"
- Provides a comment window, displaying user-added comments, including comments in assembly code and pseudocode.
- Support for different types of comments (common, repeatable, anterior, posterior, pseudocode and function comments).
- Captured user-added comments will be preserved in the IDB.
- Double-click on a comment entry to quickly navigate to the corresponding location.
- Use IDA's built-in chooser, providing a handy filter functionality.
