Brackets LESS AutoCompile settings

Hello,

I use the plugin "LESS AutoCompile" for brackets.

Does anyone know how to exclude certain files or directories from being compiled? I just want to compile the style.less in style.css in my project. However, the plugin automatically compiles all my .less files I open with brackets.

Thanks, Roland

This is from the documentation on GitHub.

GitHub - jdiehl/brackets-less-autocompile: Automatic compilation of LESS files for Brackets

The first line of code is where you express your preferred options. For example:

// out: ../dist/app.css, compress: true, strictMath: true

AutoCompile does not do AutoPrefixing. You need a separate Brackets extension for that.

You will need to place a line of code at the top of the .less document you wish to keep from compiling.

The code:

//out:null
