LESS color coding issue when a dash is followed by a number in a selector

[danilocelic]

While browsing the Brackets code, I opened /styles/brackets_codemirror_override.less and I noticed that a few selectors were color coded as if there were property values, in particular lines 59, 57 and 62 (from of Sprint 10's release). The color coding issue appears in LESS files, but I have not seen it in a CSS file using the same selectors.

In the following example:
span.cm-variable-2 {color: @accent-variable-2;}
"span.cm-variable-2" is color code as green. If you remove the "2" at the end, the color coding is correct, if you replace the number with a letter, the color coding is correct.

The dash followed by a number anywhere in the selector triggers this color coding issue.

Dupe of #675, which is now user story 477. I'm going to close this, but please vote on the user story card on Trello so we know it's important to you.

Weird, when I first searched for LESS in the issues, none of the issues marked closed appeared in the results list, now I'm seeing them. Sorry for the duplicate.

No worries! Searching for bugs is always a little bit hit or miss.
