 7.8.11 Syntax Tables
 --------------------
 
 Syntax tables do for input what compositions do for output: They allow
 you to teach custom notations to Calc’s formula parser.  Calc keeps a
 separate syntax table for each language mode.
 
    (Note that the Calc “syntax tables” discussed here are completely
 unrelated to the syntax tables described in the Emacs manual.)
 
    The ‘Z S’ (‘calc-edit-user-syntax’) command edits the syntax table
 for the current language mode.  If you want your syntax to work in any
 language, define it in the Normal language mode.  Type ‘C-c C-c’ to
 finish editing the syntax table, or ‘C-x k’ to cancel the edit.  The ‘m
 m’ command saves all the syntax tables along with the other mode
 settings; General Mode Commands.
