VIM-LESS

This vim bundle adds syntax highlighting, indenting and autocompletion for the dynamic stylesheet language LESS.

This bundle is compatible with vim-css-color, vim-css3-syntax and possibly other plugins that place code in after/syntax/css.vim or after/syntax/css/*.vim.

Installing and Using

• Install pathogen into ~/.vim/autoload/ and add the following line to your ~/.vimrc:

    call pathogen#infect()
  

• Make a clone of the vim-less repository:

    $ mkdir -p ~/.vim/bundle
    $ cd ~/.vim/bundle
    $ git clone https://github.com/groenewege/vim-less
  

• OR use git submodules:

    $ git submodule add https://github.com/groenewege/vim-less.git bundle/vim-less
    $ git submodule init
  

That's it. Pathogen should handle the rest. Opening a file with a .less extension will load everything.

Map

.less to .css , lessc is required.
