Frida will the recursively disassembler all functions +directly reachable from this entrypoint. + +To rename the currently selected function use the r Hotkey. You can +also rename functions from the contextmenu of the individual items in +the function list (by default located on the left side). + +Adding comments +=============== + +You have the choice of adding "local" and "global" comments. Global +comments add information intended for human observers to an address +and are displayed at that address. Local comments are supposed to be +meaningfull only in the context of the specific function but not when +the same address appears within different functions. However, local +functions are not completely implemented yet. + +Saving progress +=============== + +Files saved by frida are standalone. They can be opened and used by +frida on the same or a different computer and do *not* require the +original binary to be available on that machine. Function names as +well as the CFG are preserved, however the textual representation and +the graph layout are reconstructed when opening the saved file. + Hotkeys ======= -- 2.39.2
