Hi. :)

I think the larger question is one of LALR vs ANTLR's recursive-descent 
LL parsers.  ANTLR doesn't generate a table of integers as LALR tools 
do.  You can actually step thru with a debugger. :)  That's perhaps the 
biggest diff; makes things easier to understand.

Hope this helps,
Terence
