[antlr-interest] How to get information on the tokens that produced a tree node?

[Jim Idle]

Did you check the archives? I am sure that I have answered this before.
But you get the start and end token from the node, then ask the start
token for its information and the end token for its information, and then
you have the complete span of a node. Beware of -> ^(NODE1 c u ^(NODE2 x))
as NODE2 won't get the span information when the rewrite is like that.
