+" ---------------------------------------------------------------------
+" In cases where Solarized is initialized inside a terminal vim session and 
+" then transferred to a gui session via the command `:gui`, the gui vim process 
+" does not re-read the colorscheme (or .vimrc for that matter) so any `has_gui` 
+" related code that sets gui specific values isn't executed.
+"
+" Currently, Solarized sets only the cterm or gui values for the colorscheme 
+" depending on gui or terminal mode. It's possible that, if the following 
+" autocommand method is deemed excessively poor form, that approach will be 
+" used again and the autocommand below will be dropped.
+"
+" However it seems relatively benign in this case to include the autocommand 
+" here. It fires only in cases where vim is transferring from terminal to gui 
+" mode (detected with the script scope s:vmode variable). It also allows for 
+" other potential terminal customizations that might make gui mode suboptimal.
