[antlr-interest] how to solve 'code too large' problem?

I tweaked ANTLR 2 to accept some xml-ish syntax and created tokenstreams
that use SAX or XMLPull to read tokens. I've been using it for all of my
xml parsing and it's so much easier than writing big if statements in a
startElement method or setting up rules in digester.
