What was the reason for the following change?
2004-11-06 Richard M. Stallman <address@hidden>
* subr.el (syntax-after): Return the syntax letter, not the raw code.
It seems really gratuitous. There are already 2 ways to represent the
syntax info of a char: as a cons cell and as a string. Both are documented
in the elisp manual.
The above change introduces yet a third representation, and an undocumented
one at that. Was that really necessary?
I just saw that the above change caused Juri to install a fix to
descr-text.el that replaces a call to syntax-after with a copy of its
(previous) body. I think this is moving backward, not forward.
