Hi,

Everytime I run:

less-monitor

I got:

: No such file or directory

even when I run:

less-monitor --help

any idea how to fix it?

Steps to reproduce

1. Setup project which uses LESS v. 2.7.1.
2. Install less-monitor globally via npm (npm install less-monitor -g).
3. Run less-monitor -d styles/ -o buildfolder/ -m index.less -f.

Expected behaviour

less-monitor should compile LESS file "styles/index.less" with all its imports to "build/index.css" and continue to watch the file.

Actual behaviour

1. Watch starts.
2. less-monitor finds the "index.less" file, seen in log (1).
3. -f option forces immediate compilation.
4. Compilation fails with trace in (1).
5. less-monitor terminates.

On Windows 10.

I installed less-monitor on a new machine, and therefor got the latest less version 1.6.0. But now I get this error:

[Jan-13 10:50:26] Error parsing: test.less
[Jan-13 10:50:26] -------------------------------------------------------------

undefined_methodError: Object function (){
                                return lower;
                        } has no method 'charAt' in test.less on line null, column 0:
1

test.less compiles fine with the less compiler.

If I change the less dependency version in package.json to 1.5.1, then it works fine.

It quit watching .less file itself whenever i m updated .less file with the following error shown in an image :

If I use your package I always get

npm WARN deprecated [email protected]: Please update to minimatch 3.0.2 or higher to avoid a RegExp DoS issue

At a seemingly random point during any project, I receive the following error:

Quitting...

events.js:72
throw er; // Unhandled 'error' event
^
Error: watch Unknown system errno 1450
at errnoException (fs.js:1019:11)
at FSEvent.FSWatcher._handle.onchange (fs.js:1037:26)

I am yet to find out what causes this error, as even when I undo the CSS changes I made to a point before I received the error, the error still appears and it completely prevents me from using less-monitor again for that project. I then have to revert to using the "simpless" application, which works fine. Any ideas as to what is causing this error to appear? I have tried uninstalling and reinstalling less-monitor several times - no change.
