+ after the X server restarts, e.g. when running Vim for
+ long time inside screen/tmux and connecting from
+ different machines).
+ [display] should be in the format of the $DISPLAY
+ environment variable (e.g. "localhost:10.0")
+ If [display] is omitted, then it reinitializes the
+ connection to the X11 server using the same value as
+ was used for the previous execution of this command.
+ If the value was never specified, then it uses the
+ value of $DISPLAY environment variable as it was when
+ Vim was started.
