i was trying compiling bootstrap.less but got error in progress-bar.less (i haven't done any change in that file).
Tried using less compiler from terminal as instructed but in that also I am getting error. -- I installed less via npm -- When i am trying to run less bootstrap.less > bootstrap.css , i am getting -bash: lessc: command not found i want to do quite a few change in variables.less to change all colors and all and this not compiling is driving me crazy now :( -- Anand Anjaria Sent with Sparrow (http://www.sparrowmailapp.com/?sig) On Saturday, February 11, 2012 at 2:53 PM, Sam Sherlock wrote: > if you are using responsive you compile both the boostrap.less (uses the > other sheets not responsive one) and the responsive.less (media q's in here > it use variables mixins too from memory) sheet > > not in front of the code right now so the responsive name might be slightly > different (it will have media queries) > > but otherwise its just the bootstrap.less in sources the other less sheets > you can check your output again the twitter.github.com/bootstrap/examples/ > (http://twitter.github.com/bootstrap/examples/) can look at the css in the > files there > > from this you should be able to see whats working. > > thats assuming the error you get is due to compiling indivual sheets and not > because the method of compiling is not working completely > if you goto lesscss.org (http://lesscss.org) you can get a simple sample of > less t compile proove that less is working for the method your using. > > node/npm though taxing to setup is the best method (for me lessphp is on par, > I have php 5.3.3 on windows and ubuntu 5.3.10 forget actually I could not > find a requirement listing sure I used it fine with 5.2.x but a later version) > simpLess as yet not tried but will be - have seen reports of issues from > others (so can't be specific on use of this nor be certain of it being > problem free) - see https://github.com/twitter/bootstrap/issues/630 closed > and reopenned > > what method are you using to compile? what error are you getting? > > - S > > > > > On 11 February 2012 05:43, Anand Anjaria <[email protected] > (mailto:[email protected])> wrote: > > Hi Sam, > > > > Thanks for your input.
