INSTALLATION FROM BINARIES
--------------------------

1, Install Python 2.5 or 2.6 from http://www.python.org/
2, Copy the python and python64 directories to the IDA install directory
3. Copy the plugins to the %IDADIR%\plugins\


USAGE
-----

The plugin has three hotkeys: 

 - Run script (Alt-9)
 - Execute Python statement(s) (Alt-8)
 - Run previously executed script again (Alt-7)

Batch mode execution:

Start IDA with the following command line options:

 -A -OIDAPython:yourscript.py file_to_work_on

If you want fully unattended execution mode, make sure your script
exits with a qexit() call.

By default scripts run after the database is opened. Extended option
format is:

  -OIDAPython:[N;]script.py

Where N can be:
  0: run script after opening database (default)
  1: run script when UI is ready
  2: run script immediately on plugin load (shortly after IDA starts and before processor modules and loaders)

User init file:

You can place your custom settings to a file called 'idapythonrc.py'
that should be placed to 

${HOME}/.idapro/

or 

%AppData%\Hex-Rays\IDA Pro

The user init file is read and executed at the end of the init process.
