[antlr-interest] issue with antlr requiring a whitespace at a specific place

[Olivier Sallou]

For the same, I have mismatched token. I simplified it to maximum (see
first line of attached screenshot)

However I see in my editor (antlrworks) in interpreter tab: "Ignore
rules: WHITESPACE".

I wonder why, I did not ask for such ignore, and I do not see how to
remove this.

Maybe this occurs in generated code too.
