Hi,
I wrote this snippet:
"--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
fun! Ffunchdr()
let date = strftime( "%F" )
put='/*-----------------------------------------------------------------------------*/'
put='/**'
put=' * desc'
put=' *'
put=' *'
put=' *'
put=' * Created: ' . date . '
put=' *'
put=' * parameter:
put=' * parameter:
put=' * parameter:

put=' * parameter:
put=' *'
put=' * result 0 - Success, -1 - Failure'
put=' *'
put=' */'
?desc
endfun
command! Funchdr :call Ffunchdr()
This should give nme the header comment for function definitions in C.
My problem seems to be the "?desc" command at the end.
It /should/ move the cursor onto the "desc" keyword right in the
beginning of the comment block.
But it move the cursor to here:
* desc
^
|
cursor position
My """analysis""" (a too big word...) of the problem is: "?" is still
waiting for input. I tried
?desc<CR>
instead, but now "?" tries to find "desc<CR>" literally and did not
find it.
There seem to be an exception of the "type the commands as you would
do normally"-rule here...but what is the rule to recognize that the
current situation is an exception and what is the solution?
Thank you very much in advance for any help ! :)
Have a nice weekend!

What you're using is a "searching range" (as in ":?desc" from the keyboard).
It positions the cursor on the first nonblank in the matched line.
To use a "search command" (as in "?desc" from the keyboard) in an Ex-command
line, use ":normal":
normal ?desc
see
:help :range
:help :normal
