Sass comments weird.

[twincy]

can’t get /* */-comments (do we say ‘normal css comments’?) to compile into comments on the same line as a property.

example:

.foo
color: #369
font-size: 2em /* i like ems */
padding: 20px

…should compile into:

.foo {
color: #336699;
font-size: 2em; /* i like ems */
padding: 20px; }

no?

feels like they work in the same way as silent comments (//)

thoughts anyone?

Not sure if it’s typos or anything (or if your compiler allows this) but your pre-compiled code doesn’t have brackets and semicolons.

I use Compass.app as my SASS compiler and if I use this code:

.foo {
color: #369;
font-size: 2em; /* i like ems */
padding: 20px;
}

…it compiles into:

.foo {
color: #369;
font-size: 2em;
/* i like ems */
padding: 20px;
}

Try placing `!` mark, like so: `/*! comment */`.

I never leave comments in production code, but I never had issues with SASS compiler on Linux when I just compile it with
`sass –watch app.scss:app.css`
and adding
`–style compressed`
would make the code production ready, which strips out the comments.

tnx for answers, ppl!

i’m using [Guard](http://www.google.com/url?sa=t&rct=j&q=&esrc=s&source=web&cd=1&cad=rja&ved=0CDEQFjAA&url=http%3A%2F%2Fnet.tutsplus.com%2Ftutorials%2Ftools-and-tips%2Fguard-is-your-best-friend%2F&ei=7JN9UZTuM8aK7Abd94GQAQ&usg=AFQjCNEI_bffAvmJhaGH3D608G25CwNyTg&sig2=WBAmm7ytuFex8OBHqioqdw&bvm=bv.45645796,d.ZGU) on win7.
i’ll minify the css for production for sure, but at the moment it is set to **:style => :expanded** in my Guardfile.

i’m using the SASS syntax (without the brackets/semicolons.)
only if i use the SCSS syntax i can get the comment to (at least) pop down under + then i don’t need to use the bang (!) in the comment.

Works with scss syntax but not with sass.

You can also download [Prepros App](http://alphapixels.com/prepros) for windows which does compiling and live browser refresh.

sweet. never heard of it.
will check. cheers!
the LiveReload beta was dodgy. this might be an alternative, but i’m trying to use the command line as much as possible (though even Guard prevents it ;))

[twincy]

now… if i only could get that executable it would be nice…

[Subash]

Sorry @twincy, Now you can download. Cheers !
