Solarized flips between light and dark modes. In each mode, four monotones form
the core values (with an optional fifth for emphasized content).

Thus in the case of a dark background colorscheme, the normal relationship for
-background and body text is base03:base0 (please note that body text is **not**
-base00). Note also that in cases where the background and foreground can be
-specified as a pair value, text can be highlighted using a combination of
-base02:base1. The L\*a\*b lightness difference between base03:base0 and
-base02:base1 is identical by design, resulting in identical readability against
-both normal and highlighted backgrounds. An example use case is folded text in
-Vim which uses base02 for the background and base1 for the foreground.

The values in this example are simply inverted in the case of a light
background.
