title: Can LESS generate images like Compass (Sass)?
body: <p>I'm comparing capabilities of LESS with Compass(Sass)</p>
  
  <p>To make cross browser transparent background in Compass we can use this method <a href="http://aaronrussell.co.uk/legacy/cross-browser-rgba-support/" rel="nofollow">http://aaronrussell.co.uk/legacy/cross-browser-rgba-support/</a> which can generate transparent image too along with rgba code.</p>
  
  <blockquote>
    <p><a href="https://github.com/aaronrussell/compass-rgbapng" rel="nofollow">compass-rgbapng plugin</a> for providing cross-browser compatible RGBA
    support by creating transparent PNGs on the fly for browsers that
    don't support RGBA. Uses the pure Ruby ChunkyPNG library for hassle
    free install and deployment.</p>
  </blockquote>
  
  <pre><code>sudo gem install compass-rgbapng
  
  require "rgbapng"
  
  @import "rgbapng";
  
  
  background: url('/images/rgbapng/000000bf.png?1282127952');
  background: rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.75);
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>Is it possible to do same with LESS? I think not because LESS is based on JavaScript and JavaScript is not as capable as ruby. Am i right?</p>
