Commentator is a IDA Pro plugin for annotating decompiler output with the function prototype of the winapi function just so its easier to focus.

1. From your disassembler's python console, run the following command to find its plugin directory:

   • IDA Pro: os.path.join(idaapi.get_user_idadir(), "plugins")

2. Copy commentator.py and commentator.db to the listed directory

3. Restart IDA.

This plugin assumes you have python3

Put the cursor to the function call which you want to annotation for and press Ctrl-Alt-S, every call for that function in that idb is annotated

note: these screenshots are from the other branch

• Add scripts and steps to generate commentator.db by parsing local documentation from msdn
• Fix stuff in the blkcmnt branch and merge it to main
