The uncommented directives from my .vimoutlinerrc are:

    let g:vo_modules_load = "checkbox:hoist"
    setlocal background=dark
    setlocal nowrap
    let g:hoistParanoia=0
    colorscheme vo_dark

So, my assumption is that vo_dark would be selected. However, vo_light
is always used when I load a vimoutliner file in gvim. vo_dark *is*
selected when I load the file in vim from a console, however.
