To turn a non-fragment lexer rule into a fragment rule, you just
put the word "fragment" in front of it. This means that it's no
longer considered a possible candidate to be selected as a full
token -- it has to be referenced from other lexer rules in order
to have any effect. (It is still allocated a token id, though,
which is useful for more advanced problems.)
Have a look at the example v3 grammars. You might also want to
get TDAR (the ANTLR book).
