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

1. Install 2.6 or 2.7 from http://www.python.org/
2. Copy "python" directory to %IDADIR%
3. Copy "plugins" directory to the %IDADIR%\plugins\
4. Copy "python.cfg" to %IDADIR%\cfg

USAGE
-----

 - Run script: File / Script file (Alt-F7)
 - Execute Python statement(s) (Ctrl-F3)
 - Run previously executed script again: View / Recent Scripts (Alt+F9)

Batch mode execution:

Start IDA with the following command line options:

 -A -OIDAPython:yourscript.py file_to_work_on
or
-Syourscript.py
or
-S"yourscript.py arg1 arg2 arg3"

(Please see http://www.hexblog.com/?p=128)

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.

Please note that IDAPython can be configured with "python.cfg" file.
