Although, having done this, Altrworks does complain about the tree and 
subtree rules:

[16:49:06] warning(200): NewickGrammar.g:12:28:
Decision can match input such as "EOF" using multiple alternatives: 1, 2

As a result, alternative(s) 2 were disabled for that input
[16:49:06] error(201): NewickGrammar.g:12:28: The following alternatives 
can never be matched: 2

Check out the syntax diagram for these two rules.


Cheers,
Norm.
