2# tzdb data for ships at sea and other miscellany
3
4# This file is in the public domain, so clarified as of
5# 2009-05-17 by Arthur David Olson.
6
7# These entries are for uses not otherwise covered by the tz database.
8# Their main practical use is for platforms like Android that lack
9# support for POSIX.1-2017-style TZ strings.  On such platforms these entries
10# can be useful if the timezone database is wrong or if a ship or
11# aircraft at sea is not in a timezone.
12
13# Starting with POSIX 1003.1-2001, the entries below are all
14# unnecessary as settings for the TZ environment variable.  E.g.,
15# instead of TZ='Etc/GMT+4' one can use the POSIX setting TZ='<-04>+4'.
16#
17# Do not use a POSIX TZ setting like TZ='GMT+4', which is four hours
18# behind GMT but uses the completely misleading abbreviation "GMT".
19
20# The following zone is used by tzcode functions like gmtime,
21# which load the "UTC" file to handle seconds properly.
22Zone	Etc/UTC		0	-	UTC
23
24# Functions like gmtime load the "GMT" file to handle leap seconds properly.
25# Vanguard section, which works with most .zi parsers.
26#Zone	GMT		0	-	GMT
27# Rearguard section, for TZUpdater 2.3.2 and earlier.
28Zone	Etc/GMT		0	-	GMT
29
30# The following link uses older naming conventions,
31# but it belongs here, not in the file 'backward',
32# as it is needed for tzcode releases through 2022a,
33# where functions like gmtime load "GMT" instead of the "Etc/UTC".
34# We want this to work even on installations that omit 'backward'.
35Link	Etc/GMT				GMT
36# End of rearguard section.
37
38# Be consistent with POSIX TZ settings in the Zone names,
39# even though this is the opposite of what many people expect.
40# POSIX has positive signs west of Greenwich, but many people expect
41# positive signs east of Greenwich.  For example, TZ='Etc/GMT+4' uses
42# the abbreviation "-04" and corresponds to 4 hours behind UT
43# (i.e. west of Greenwich) even though many people would expect it to
44# mean 4 hours ahead of UT (i.e. east of Greenwich).
45
46# Earlier incarnations of this package were not POSIX-compliant,
47# and had lines such as
48#		Zone	GMT-12		-12	-	GMT-1200
49# We did not want things to change quietly if someone accustomed to the old
50# way does a
51#		zic -l GMT-12
52# so we moved the names into the Etc subdirectory.
53# Also, the time zone abbreviations are now compatible with %z.
