For the javascript part, the last thing they say before the footer in
lesscss.org is that you can embed javascript variables inside the css:
It is also possible to access the JavaScript environment:
@height: `document.body.clientHeight`;
I don't know how they handle it, but I don't find appropiate to mix
css and javascript.
And about being based on an older version of sass, i didn't use the
appropiate words. What I meant is that less was written because by
that time sass wasn't css compatible, but now the sass people created
scss, which is fully css compatible.
So, since the motivation that pushed the less people to create the
language (sass not being css compatible) does not apply today and
since they mix css and javascript, I find a more interesting option to
uses scss.

Francesc
