[antlr-interest] Re: Rewind one token?

[lgcraymer]

The reasonable solution is probably to add a token buffer to both
lexers (same buffer).  Take a look at the Python grammar (at
www.antlr.org) for an example of a token buffered lexer.  For your
problem, a circular buffer with fixed length would make sense.
