==== Méthode plus longue... ====

# être root

# please replace the url with the newest available version, which you can find here http://nodejs.org/download/
  wget http://nodejs.org/dist/node-v0.4.7.tar.gz

# extract node.js install package
  tar xfvz node-v0.4.7.tar.gz

# change working directory
  cd node-v0.4.7

# configure
  ./configure

# compile it
  make -j4

# install it
  make install


Installer less

  npm install -g less
  
<note tip>When you run "./configure" you might get an error that no g++,c++... compiler is available.\\
You can run "apt-get install build-essential" to solve this.

If you get an error that no openSSL is not available you can either configure it without them (--without-ssl) or you can install libssl by running:
apt-get install libssl-dev</note>

===== Utilisation =====

Command-line usage

Once installed, you can invoke the compiler from the command-line, as such:

  $ lessc styles.less
This will output the compiled CSS to stdout, you may then redirect it to a file of your choice:

  $ lessc styles.less > styles.css
  
Pour minifier le code, il faut installer YUI Compressor

  $ aptitude install yui-compressor
  
To output minified CSS, simply pass the **-x** option. If you would like more involved minification, the YUI CSS Compressor is also available with the **--yui-compress** option.

To see all the command line options run lessc without parameters.

Un petit script pour automatiser tout ça

<code bash>
#!/bin/bash
cd `dirname $0`
lessc --yui-compress public/less/bootstrap.less > public/css/bootstrap.min.css
</code>
