Spaces could be optional in Pig syntax
--------------------------------------

                 Key: PIG-742
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/PIG-742
             Project: Pig
          Issue Type: Wish
          Components: grunt
    Affects Versions: 0.1.0
            Reporter: Viraj Bhat
            Priority: Minor
             Fix For: 0.1.0


The following Pig statements generate an error if there is no space between A  
and "="
{code}
A=load 'quf.txt' using PigStorage() as (q, u, f:long);

B = group A by (q);

C = foreach B {
        F = order A by f desc;
        generate F;
};
describe C;

dump C;
{code}

1000: Error during parsing. Encountered

Was expecting one of:

    "illustrate" ...
    "run" ...
    "exec" ...
    "scriptDone" ...
    "" ...
    <EOL> ...
    ";" ...

It would be nice if the parser would not expect these space requirements 
between an alias and "="
