# BRUTAL IDA

## Block Redo & Undo To Achieve Legacy IDA

## The Problem

As we all know, IDA has no undo.

No undo - no surrender.

So naturally, IDA 7.3 adding undo functionality has ruined everyone's workflow.

### In The Media

- [IDA 7.3 Adds Undo][undo-added]

- [Undo Causes Massive Outcry][undo-outcry]

- [T-Shirt Line Destroyed][tshirts]

This will not stand.

## The Solution

BRUTAL IDA restores your original workflow by blocking the `undo` and `redo` keyboard shortcuts.

It comes in 2 modes:

- ![][ida6]: Block `undo` and `redo`

- ![][ida5]: Crash IDA on `undo` and `redo`

## Installation & Usage

It is recommended to install the plugin using the [IDA Plugin Loader](https://github.com/tmr232/ida-plugin-loader).

Just point it to the `brutal_ida.py` script.

Once installed, the plugin will add a toolbar to IDA:

![][toolbar]

Clicking the IDA icon will toggle between ![][ida5] and ![][ida6] modes. The default is ![][ida6].
