Dear all,
I want to create a command that will insert comment mark, for instance
'#', space, date and time on the next line after current, but AFAICS
there is no way to put insert commands like o in command. The most
obvious way - use mapping, but it is preferable to use command feature
You don't want to use the o command, because that leaves you in insert
mode. You're looking for the append() function:
command TimedComment :call append(line('.'), '# '.strftime('%Y-%m-%d %H:%M:%S'))
Another common idiom, if the comment you want to insert gets complex, is
to create a function, then call the function from a command.
E.g. Convert2HTML() is a function that converts a specified range to
HTML in a new buffer:
command -range=% TOhtml :call Convert2HTML(<line1>, <line2>)
