[antlr-interest] Eclipse plugins

[Gerald Rosenberg]

Jim:

Need to be a bit cautious with dedicated Eclipse platforms.  Some 
modify platform internals, leading to unexpected incompatibilities 
with third-party plugins.

Rather than trying to add plugins directly to RAA, you could run 
AntlrWorks or a second, current version of Eclipse as an external 
Antlr grammar editor.  Just enable the the workspace auto-refresh 
preference to make external filesystem modifications immediately 
visible in the RAA workspace.

FWIW, AntlrDT is currently closed source but use is free -- no 
procurement required.  The current version does require Eclipse 3.4.

Best,
Gerald
