Using @charset "UTF-8" returns an error

I am trying to compile my .less document, and I am getting an error when trying to use @charset "UTF-8";.

I want to be sure my document is encoded correctly because of the way I embed my fonts. src: local('☺'), url(...);

Any ideas?

Solution

  • Update:

    This seems to be a big, they say to fix it in the next version:

    Thanks for posting, this is fixed in the upcoming 2.0 version, which should be released sometime this month. It is indeed due to @charset not being parsed as a directive.

    So it should be fixed in recent version. Make sure that you are using the latest version of it.
