What is the feature you'd like to have?
IDA added a feature in 7.6 that automatically names variables according to some rules, this can massively speed up time renaming every copy of a variable.
Here are the rules from the blog article (https://hex-rays.com/blog/igors-tip-of-the-week-76-quick-rename/):
Some additional ones that would be interesting is for functions where there's no control flow divergence and only a single function call (
sprintf
for example), they could be auto renamed tosprintf_wrapper
or similar.Some of these are probably a bit too much like Igor/Ilfaks personal choice such as the
create_table
one, but being able to automatically rename things would be extremely useful, ideally each rule would have options to enable/disable it, I'd say it could be a workflow thing but it seems to be more useful during manual interaction and renaming of objects/variables.Tagging @psifertex because I mentioned I would make an issue to track this
