[antlr-interest] adding a subtree to the left side of a rewrite rule which doesn't have a corresponding left side element ?

Hi!
thanks for the quick reply!
However, the 'SL' token is not the problem, it's putting the list into a subtree and including that in the rewrite-rule's output.
I'm sure the answer is very obvious, but i'm unable to see it right now.
Thanks,
R.
