Fawkss — The CSS preprocessor for people who dislike CSS preprocessors 
Fawkss [fɔːks] is a simple CSS preprocessor built as a single AWK (nawk/gawk/mawk) script. Syntactically, it borrows as much as possible from the SASS language, for convenience and familiarity.
This is more of a fun project than a production-ready piece of software, though it may find some use for people needing simple additions to CSS without pulling in the massive ecosystem that comes with Less.js/SASS etc.
Status
Currently, the following features are implemented:
- C99/C++-style comments (.i.e.
// This is a comment) - Variables
A full test-suite is provided (depending only on Bash and AWK), which should serve as a good example of the existing feature-set.
Roadmap
It is intended that the script never balloons to more than ~1000 lines of code. I'm trying to tackle the most important features yet and see how well they fit within the AWK mindset.
That being said, I do not plan to implement any context-sensitive functionality (such as nesting etc.), which may be nigh-impossible in AWK anyways. Consider it a feature.
Are you kidding me?
Nope. I wouldn't suggest you actually use this for anything, though.
