I wouldn't expect that to work because I'd expect the \<c-?> construct
to be parsed when the double quoted string is built, before the .
operator is invoked. You'd need some indirection:
fun! Mycompl(type)
startinsert
execute 'let keys = "\<c-x>\<c-' . a:type . '>"'
call feedkeys(keys)
endfun
Seems to work for me, at least with 'k'. I don't know why it works
without moving the cursor right, though. If the cursor is on the end
of a word, and I type i ^x ^k the last letter of the word is shunted
to the right and doesn't take part in the matching. Maybe startinsert
has some magic. Simpler might be to use a:
fun! Mycompl(type)
execute 'let keys = "a\<c-x>\<c-' . a:type . '>"'
call feedkeys(keys)
endfun
