Message-ID: <154@desint.UUCP> Date: Sun, 19-Jan-86 20:44:32 EST Article-I.D.: desint.154 Posted: Sun Jan 19 20:44:32 1986 Date-Received: Mon, 20-Jan-86 22:34:11 EST Reply-To: geoff@desint.UUCP (Geoff Kuenning) Distribution: na Organization: SAH Consulting, Manhattan Beach, CA Lines: 9 In SV and such there is an external variable 'timezone' which contains your timezone. I seem to remember this was not in V7. How does one figure out the timezone in V7/BSD? I was thinking of running "localtime" and "gmtime" on the same value and figuring out the zone from the difference, but it strikes me as a lot of work. -- Geoff Kuenning {hplabs,ihnp4}!trwrb!desint!geoff
