When you search for a substring in a word such as 'eLong' in
someLongStringVarName
the cursor is placed at the beginning of the search predicate (in the
example that'd be the first 'e')
Is there a commadn that can set the cursor to the end of the substring
searched for (the 'g' or 'V' in the example)?
Thanks!

Not normally. Both of these leave point between "someLong" and before
"StringName":
C-s eLong RET
M-: (search-forward "eLong")
Does emacs -Q give the same same behavior you describe?
