+		Return a |List|, which is the stack of syntax items at the
+		position {lnum} and {col} in the current window.  Each item in
+		the List is an ID like what |synID()| returns.
+		The stack is the situation in between the character at "col"
+		and the next character.  Note that a region of only one
+		character will not show up, it only exists inside that
+		character, not in between characters.
+		The first item in the List is the outer region, following are
+		items contained in that one.  The last one is what |synID()|
+		returns, unless not the whole item is highlighted or it is a
+		transparent item.
+		This function is useful for debugging a syntax file.
+		Example that shows the syntax stack under the cursor: >
+			for id in synstack(line("."), col("."))
+			   echo synIDattr(id, "name")
