In this tutorial I'll be showing how to create an [Omega](http://drupal.org/project/omega) subtheme using the [Omega Tools](http://drupal.org/project/omega_tools) module, and have it working with the [LESS CSS preprocessor](http://lesscss.org).
The first thing that I need to do is download the Omega theme and the Omega Tools and [LESS](http://drupal.org/project/less "LESS module on drupal.org") modules, and then to enable both modules. I'm doing this using Drush, but you can of course do this via the admin interface at admin/modules.
$ drush dl less omega omega_tools;
$ drush en -y less omega_tools
$ drush dl less omega omega_tools;
$ drush en -y less omega_tools
With the Omega Tools module enabled I get the drush omega-subtheme command that creates my Omega subtheme programatically. Using this command, I'm creating a new subtheme, enabling it and setting it as the default theme on my site.
$ drush omega-subtheme "Oliver Davies" --machine_name="oliverdavies" --enable --set-default
$ drush omega-subtheme "Oliver Davies" --machine_name="oliverdavies" --enable --set-default
By default, four stylesheets are created within the subtheme's css directory. The first thing that I'm going to do is rename `global.css` to `global.less`.
$ mv css/global.css css/global.less
$ mv css/global.css css/global.less
Now I need to find all references to global.css within my oliverdavies.info file. I did this using `$ nano oliverdavies.info`, pressing `Ctrl+W` to search, then `Ctrl+R` to replace, entering `global.css` as the search phrase, and then `global.less` as the replacement text. After making any changes to oliverdavies.info, I need to clear Drupal's caches for the changes to be applied.
$ drush cc all
$ drush cc all
I tested my changes by making some quick additions to my global.less file and reloading the page.
