Less Files Won't Work With Current Preprocessors

[bcg]

This is my first time venturing into the world of less so I'm not sure how to resolve this issue yet but the only way I could compile the less in minimal-mistakes was using 1.3.3 of less.js

@bcg Which preprocessors did you try? I've used CodeKit for OS X and WinLess for Windows, and they appear to compile just fine. There's probably a missing ; or } in one of the LESS files and it's causing the preprocessor to puke.

Did you get any sort of error message that indicated the problem LESS file or line? That would help in pinpointing the issue.

I tried using your recommendations as well and couldn't get CodeKit to work:

I saw that Prepros had and issue that was a result of an old less preprocessor version so, I tried using older and older less.js versions until I found one that would compile.

I'm using an older version of CodeKit, so that's why I didn't notice the error.
The problem is Typeplate, they used some funky strict math that causes problems with newer versions of Less. They stopped doing a Less version and I have no idea how all their crazy mixins work, so I won't be able to fix it.

Their appears to be an option to disable strict math on specific .less files that might help. I stopped using Typeplate for my newer Jekyll themes, and simplified the typography greatly. That's something I want to do with Minimal Mistakes, I just need to find the time.

@bcg Ok I had a few minutes to refactor a few things. Check the 1.1.1 release I just pushed and let me know if everything is peachy now. I took out Typeplate and cleaned up a few other things as well.
