hi, when i write this skill (cadence extension language) fragment in

vscCheckpoint( ddCVs ?message message)

Notice all the comments placed on the closing brackets. Is there a way
to make vim do this?
TIA
In Vimscript, IIUC what you mean, a comment starts with a double quote. Most
statements accept a comment after them; a few don't, because they see the
quote as part of their arguments. See ":help :quote".
There is a workaround to add comments even after the commands (such as :map)
which don't accept them (see ":help :comment"):
exe 'map <F9> <C-]>' |" find tag under cursor
So you could do (not sure whether I read emacs syntax correctly, but the
following should give you a notion of what is possible):
function vscCheckpointHere(key, lib, cell, view, message, inclibs)
let ddCVS = vscPrint0(printf("Hierarchy for %s, %s, %s ...",
\ a:lib, a:cell, a:view))
if ddCVS == vscGetHierarchyDDs(a:lib, a:cell, a:view, a:inclibs)
let ddCVS = vscPrint0(printf(" %d cellviews.", length(ddCVS))
call vsCheckpoint(a:message)
endif " ddCVS
" endfunction vsCheckpointHere
endfunction
(I'm not sure whether or not a comment is allowed after ":endfunction", see
":help :endfunction")
If your vim code is properly indented, you might also have less need for this
kind of comments.
Best regards,
Tony.
