  @end defun
  
+ @defun syntax-after pos
+ 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.
+ @end defun

  @defun set-syntax-table table
