This is a skin for Midnight Commander using the Solarized palette.
It is designed to be used with terminal emulators that use Solarized palette as
their ANSI colors.
It is a fork from nkulikov/mc-solarized-skin however it was rewriten from
scratch based on GoTaR MC skin. The file highliting was adjusted to be as
close as possible to the Solarized dircolors.ansi-universal.
Some info on skin writing is available on MC wiki,
yet it's usually takes a PHD to understand what's going on.
And since I'm senile and lazy, I don't want to keep going to external references.
Also, it seems it's bloody scattered all over the place, and one has to collect tiny,
and I do mean TINY, and sometimes outdated, pieces of information to form something complete.
That's why I took the libery to comment EVERYTHING, just in case.
Note you might need mc > 4.7.5 for this scheme to work
See MC install script on how to compile from source.
