I'm in favor of simplification (only one option) as well as the
switch. A bit more work, but nothing we can't handle.

I always thought that the "!" prefix tends to be a bit ambiguous
because of its common notion of a logical NOT.
I mean that reading
=column-base(!last = false)
+float-left
@if !last
+last
reads to a Java/Ruby/JavaScript/C/… programmer as "IF NOT LAST" which
is exactly the opposite
I am all for this. $ is common in not only PHP stew but also
Javascript. ! is NOT!!
Thanks

In favor of $. Not too many languages have a mandatory variable
prefix (I'm thinking Javascript, Java/Scala, Ruby, C/++, C#, etc) but
the one that does (PHP) uses a $. Might as well use $ for
consistency :)

Chris, you are correct. There has to be some sort of character to
designate variables. I think the $ works well because people are
familiar with the $.

I'm all for this too. $ makes much more sense than !. Although to be
honest I'm much more excited about the prospect of removing the need
for =.
I've been using the SCSS syntax a bit (which is great by the way - a
massive step in the right direction), but I do get irked by having to
format styles
a big +1 for this. "!" is too easily confused with the logical not, as
has been stated. "$" is much clearer. good call.

I strongly agree that $ will be better than !. As far as deprecations go,
perhaps you could go with first a warning for one release cycle, and then
leave it as a non-default configuration option for another release cycle
before eliminating it entirely.

Let's assume for a second that it didn't create parsing ambiguities.
Would you really prefer:
div
border: width solid blue
over:
div
border: $width solid blue
I think the latter is much more clear from a reader's perspective.
And without the prefix we could also do horrible things like th
Here's the blueprint grid, re-written using scss and taking advantage of all
the language features that are planned in sass3:

You can compare this to the current version:

I would also prefer $ over ! if for no other reason than !important
could potentially be confused. I'd consider the ! somewhat reserved in
css, whereas $ is accepted for variables.

While this thread has probably outlived it's usefulness, the consensus seems to
be that everyone wants to
see the change from '!
I was a Perl Hacker back in college and my first programming language was
BASIC where every string variable ended in $. I've never coded php -- but I
use php as an example because it's the most pervasive web programming
language.
