Maintain folder structure

[jima-zillow]

I'm looking for a way to maintain my folder structure. Currently all my LESS files live in a 'less' directory. Within that directory some of the files are located in the root (less/master.less), and others are located within sub-folders (less/module/nav.less). I want my compiled files to have the same sub-folder hierarchy, but change the root folder from 'less' to 'css'.

What would a command for this look like? Write now I've got this:

"cmd": ["lessc", "$file", "${file_path}/../css/${file_base_name}.css", "--verbose"]

But this only works when the .less file is a direct child of my root directory.

Hi, i have the same "issue" on windows, let me show my config for MIN.LESS.sublime-build as i fixed, the problem

that works perfect on win

{
"cmd": ["lessc", "$file", "${file_path}/${file_base_name}.css", "-x", "--verbose"],
"file_regex": "^[ ]*File \"(...*?)\", line ([0-9]*)",
"selector": "source.css.less",

"osx":
{
    "path": "/usr/local/bin:$PATH"
},

"windows":
{
    "cmd": ["dotless.Compiler.exe", "-m", "$file", "..\\css\\\\${file_base_name}"],
    "path": "%APPDATA%\\Sublime Text 2\\Packages\\LESS-build" //Not sure why "${packages}\\LESS-build" doesn't work
}

}

This is the solution I came up with, works well.

Replace the windows cmd line with: "cmd": ["dotless.Compiler.exe", "$file", "${file_path/\less\/\css\/g}\${file_base_name}.css"],

@mazzzzz solution makes my dotless.Compiler.exe crash!

and the console returns:

Unhandled Exception: System.ArgumentException: The path is not of a legal form.

Sorry, I copied an old version of the command, the new version is commented out in the .sublime-build file, you can use that one, and it works perfectly

Hi, just a heads up, in the newest version, if you go to the package directory (look at the readme for your os's package directory path) and run the script changeLESSBuildType.bat (or changeLESSBuildType.sh for osx/linux) and select option 2. This will configure the builder to put the css in the css directory (more info and an example in the readme).

Sorry to dig up an old issue, but I just wanted to say that you are awesome and this makes my day. :)
