Description

Certain parse errors are:

/Users/bard/x10/manual/x10.man/v2.2/compileCheck/Activities80.x10:6: Syntax error: Token "resume" expected instead of this input

It is hard for a reader to figure out which input is meant. Something on line 6, but there are many tokens on line 6. Would it be possible to get more detail from the parser?
