growl & syntax errors etc

[j0hnsmith]

I would be nice if using lessc -gw ...

or any combination of watch and growl, that you didn't have to Press [return] to continue... when there's a syntax error as growl already notifies the user. This way you could just fix the error and continue.

I agree that just fixing the error and resaving is more convenient than having to press return. I logged a similar issue here:

http://github.com/cloudhead/less/issues/#issue/116

and a proposed fix here:

I was thinking about this too earlier, will see what I can do! (also going to merge in your patch at some point gun)

This would be nice also because it notifies you when a file that's being --watched has been compiled again. Currently, I don't know for sure if it has been compiled since the last time, as I'm not looking at my terminal all the time, to notice the extra line that appears... I just wait a couple of seconds to see if a new line pops up, and if it doesn't, I suppose it already popped up before I started looking.
