 *  - Compile only if not modified
 *  - Respect If-Modified-Since header
 *  - @todo Add caching for gzipped version
 *  - @todo Add caching header
 * 
 * Installation:
 * 1. Download lessphp and extract to $DOCUMENT_ROOT/lessphp
 * @link http://leafo.net/lessphp/
 * 
 * 2. Add this script in the lessphp directory
 * 
 * 3.1. Add RewriteRule in htaccess
 * RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
 * RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} ^(.*)\.css
 * RewriteCond %1.less -f
 * RewriteRule ^(.*)\.css lessphp/less.php?f=$1.less
 *
