I'm trying to figure out how the correct command to search for a string and have

From the documentation, it seems to me this should work:
/string/e
But when I try that I get the message: E481: No range allowed.
Are you issuing what you typed, or are you issuing
:/string/e
(with the colon, performing an Ex-mode search)?
I don't believe there's an easy way to position the cursor
horizontally with an Ex-mode search. If you just use a regular
"/" search from Normal mode, the "/e" flag should work fine.
