[antlr-interest] How to use antlr V3 with C++

[miles mccoo]

Yes! that's it! Danke Danke Danke.

I hadn't realized that
http://www.antlr.org/wiki/display/ANTLR3/ANTLR+v3+documentation is just a
sub section of http://www.antlr.org/wiki/display/ANTLR3/ANTLR+3+Wiki+Home

I had looked at the sections of the documentation page that seemed relevant,
but that was the wrong starting point.

Either way, I've found it now as well as the c doxygen stuff. Perhaps the
link to the doxygen stuff should be moved to earlier in the c support
section?
