 of text properties as well as the character code.
-It returns the value compatibly with char-syntax, except
-that the value can be a list (SYNTAX . MATCHER) which says
-what the matching character is.

 This function returns a description of the syntax of the character in
 the buffer after position @var{pos}, taking account of syntax
 properties as well as the syntax table.

-The value is usually a syntax class character; however, if the buffer
-character has parenthesis syntax, the value is a cons cell of the form
-@code{(@var{class} . @var{match})}, where @var{class} is the syntax
-class character and @var{match} is the buffer character's matching
-parenthesis.
