# SwiftIDA

This is a simple plugin for IDA to aid with reverse engineering languages that have multiple return values and non-standard calling conventions. It does this by defining a set of shortcuts to easily change a function's calling convention and make it return a multi-value tuple. Tested on Swift and Golang, but should work on many more languages too.

## Usage

Download `swift-ida.py` and drop it in your IDA's `plugins` folder. After that, simply right-click on a function definition and you will see the `SwiftIDA` menu.
