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.
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.
