I don't need the "* " there (as mentioned earlier I just usually put it
there out of habit). Not sure what you mean by "." since there's no such char in my sample
above, AFAICT.
As for the " (func)" I only put it there if there's room.
Otherwise I use the longer form:
* filenames: Short description
Explanation.
* file1 (func1): desc1.
(func2): desc2.
* file2 (func3): desc3.
where "filenames" is a summary of the files. I don't have a precise
rule for what this should look like because creativity is sometimes
needed to make the whole thing fit on a single line.
