FAQ

  1. How can I only show the user added comments?

I found no way in IDA to filter these comments. A workaround is to always set repeatable comments and use ShowComments to sort by them.

  1. Does it recognize function comments?

No. If you know how to do this programatically, please let me know.

  1. What IDA versions are supported?

I've only tested with 7.6. Please, let me know if it works with a different version.
