I remember hearing about <a href="http://lesscss.org/" rel="nofollow">LESS</a> a few months ago, but didn't explore much beyond the home page because of the language-size problem. (LESS CSS's syntax is a significant departure from standard CSS's simplicity.) Sorry, Nicolas, I’m not aware of any tool that uses the syntax for delegation I described above.

Do you know any project out there that would take this syntax and compile it into a mix of "current" CSS and JS code, as LESS does for variables, etc.?
