Hi all. 
 
I had a toy grammer,

grammar cub;

prog:   (command)+ ;
command : (function |var)+;
function : (Letter)+',';
var : (Letter)+;
Letter  :       'A'..'Z';
WS      :       ( '\t'|' '|'\r'|'\n'|'\u000C' )+        { $channel = HIDDEN; } ;

I expected it can recognise text like:

Funone,varone
Funtwo,vartwo

Here is a tool run: 
[11:14:04] warning(200): cub.g:4:25: Decision can match input such as
"Letter" using multiple alternatives: 1, 2, 3
As a result, alternative(s) 3,2 were disabled for that input
[11:14:04] error(201): cub.g:4:25: The following alternatives can never be
matched: 2

I didn't know who can never be matched, and why?

Regard,
langee
