ANTLRworks can't help you with lexer trouble at all.  You need to 
write a test harness in your target language; either something 
simple that just creates a lexer and token stream and dumps all 
the tokens to the screen, or something that uses a unit testing 
framework such as JUnit, NUnit, or CppUnit.  Another option is to 
try using gUnit, but I'm not sure how far along that is.
