I'm using less.js (javascript compiler for .less files) and it would be super AWESOME if livereload could do the same thing it does for .css files for .less files. Is this possible?

There could be a configuration entry like config.apply_less_live = true to manually deactivate this behavior.

+1, it would be great if compiled stylesheets could be applied live. I would like to request this for SASS and SCSS as well.

+1, I would love this feature for windows7 64 bit platform while building my asp.net websites.

I've solved my issue with SASS by watching the files with compass, and compiling them to CSS when they change. Then livereload detects the changed CSS files, and injects them into the browser. It works great.

You guys should have a look at the SimpLESS watcher application, which does the same thing for less files.

+1, I would really like to be able to do this without compiling to a CSS file. I have PHP compile the LESS files on the server, but this makes it impossible to see the changes through LiveReload.
