Subject: Syntax Mode for LESS CSS
I was playing around with the new plugin and it is quite impressive.
Makes CSS a lot easier to use. Anyway, I was missing the syntax
highlighting so I tweaked the CSS mode to handle some of the LESS
features. You guys get a preview on it while I finish testing it out.

It's been tough because the LESS CSS syntax definition doesn't have
100% clear rules on what you can/can't do so I've had to leave some
leeway for what is highlighted/allowable. Additionally, I have been
unsuccessful in contacting Coda through the group or even direct email
about how some of the Mode features work so I have to leave some stuff
short without further info. Really wish I could get in contact with a
Coda Dev!...

Anyway, download link and instructions below: http://pradador.com/assets/LESS.mode.tgz

1. Download the tgz file and unpack.
2. Move the “LESS.mode” folder into the Coda's Modes folder. (~/
Library/Application Support/Coda/Modes/)
3. Open up your LESS file in Coda and use the mode by going to “Text -

> Syntax Mode -> LESS” in the toolbar.

4. (Optional) If you want to set this Mode as the default handler for
LESS files, go to the Editor pane in the Preferences window and add a
Custom Syntax Mode that maps the .less extension to the LESS mode.

Ooh, this is nice, I like that even with the LESS extension, I still
have access to regular CSS auto-completion.

Although, the syntax mode seems to work really nice on page load, it
doesn't seem to intelligently color while typing. Still, this is a
wonderful start!
