-Solarized
-=========
-
-A precision colorscheme for machines and people.
-
-What
-----
-
-Solarized is a 16 color palette with several unique properties. It has been 
-designed with both precise L\*A\*B lightness relationships and a refined set of 
-hues based on fixed color wheel relationships. It has been tested extensively 
-in real world use on color calibrated displays and in a variety of lighting 
-conditions.
-
-Features
---------
-
-Selective contrast
-:   Solarized reduces brightness based contrast in general. Our display devices
-    today are capable of blasting off your retina with brightness and I found 
-    my eyes growing tired using high contrast colorschemes. Solarized reduces 
-    brightness contrast but, unlike many low contrast colorschemes, retains 
-    contrasting hues (based on colorwheel relations) for syntax highlighting 
-    readability.
-
-Dual mode: Dark/Light
-:   I switch between dark and light modes when editing text even when editing
-    different types of files.
-
-Features/Benefits
---------
-Selective contrast / Reduced eye fatigue
-Colorwheel relations / Timeless design qualities
-16/5 palette

+2. Dual mode: Dark/Light
+    I switch between dark and light modes when editing text even when editing
+    different types of files. Solarized retains the same selective contrast 
+    relationships and overall feel when switching between the light and dark 
+    background modes. A *lot* of thought, planning and testing has gone into 
+    making both modes feel like part of a unified colorscheme.
+
+3. 16/5 Palette modes
+    Solarized works as a sixteen color palette for compatibility with comment
+    terminal based applications / emulators. It has been designed to scale down 
+    to a variety of five color palettes (four base monotones and one accent 
+    color) for use in design work, such as web development.
