[antlr-interest] how to match '.' ?

[fhaupt at informatik.uni-wuerzburg.de]

Hi,

I have tried to copy the complete grammar peacewise to a new one till the problem occurs. 
but it doesn't .. maybe it was the order, or i don't now. in the old file the problem remains, in the new one it isn't 
there...
strange

if one wants to have a look at both files, tell me.i'll mail them directly. So the mailinglist doesnt get spammed :)

greets and thanks

fab
