-This is the brand new, re-written from scratch plugin for ANTLR v4.
-
-Previous valiant efforts all suffered from being unable to modify the ANTLR Tool
-itself to provide support not just for Maven oriented things but any other tool
-that might wish to invoke ANTLR without resorting to the command line interface.
-
-Rather than try to shoe-horn new code into the existing Mojo (in fact I think that
-by incorporating a patch supplied by someone I ended up with tow versions of the
-Mojo, I elected to rewrite everything from scratch, including the documentation, so
-that we might end up with a perfect Mojo that can do everything that ANTLR v4 supports
-such as imported grammar processing, proper support for library directories and
-locating token files from generated sources, and so on.
-
-In the end I decided to also change the the ANTLR Tool.java code so that it
-would be the provider of all the things that a build tool needs, rather than
-delegating things to 5 different tools. So, things like dependencies, dependency
-sorting, option tracking, generating sources and so on are all folded back
-in to ANTLR's Tool.java code, where they belong, and they now provide a
-public interface to anyone that might want to interface with them.
-
-One other goal of this rewrite was to completely document the whole thing
-to death. Hence even this pom has more comments than funcitonal elements,
-in case I get run over by a bus or fall off a cliff while skiing.
