DESCRIPTION

18       This is a collection of miscellaneous timezone manipulation routines.
19
20       "tz2zone()" parses the TZ environment variable and returns a timezone
21       string suitable for inclusion in date-like output.  It opionally takes
22       a timezone string, a time, and a is-dst flag.
23
24       "tz_local_offset()" determins the offset from GMT time in seconds.  It
25       only does the calculation once.
26
27       "tz_offset()" determines the offset from GMT in seconds of a specified
28       timezone.
29
30       "tz_name()" determines the name of the timezone based on its offset
