These days, the 30# tz files cover almost all the inhabited world, and the only practical 31# need now for the entries that are not on UTC are for ships at sea 32# that cannot use POSIX TZ settings. 33 34# Starting with POSIX 1003.1-2001, the entries below are all 35# unnecessary as settings for the TZ environment variable. E.g., 36# instead of TZ='Etc/GMT+4' one can use the POSIX setting TZ='<-04>+4'. 37# 38# Do not use a POSIX TZ setting like TZ='GMT+4', which is four hours 39# behind GMT but uses the completely misleading abbreviation "GMT". 40 41Zone Etc/GMT 0 - GMT 42Zone Etc/UTC 0 - UTC 43Zone Etc/UCT 0 - UCT 44 45# The following link uses older naming conventions, 46# but it belongs here, not in the file 'backward', 47# as functions like gmtime load the "GMT" file to handle leap seconds properly. 48# We want this to work even on installations that omit the other older names. 49Link Etc/GMT GMT 50 51Link Etc/UTC Etc/Universal 52Link Etc/UTC Etc/Zulu 53 54Link Etc/GMT Etc/Greenwich 55Link Etc/GMT Etc/GMT-0 56Link Etc/GMT Etc/GMT+0 57Link Etc/GMT Etc/GMT0 58 59# Be consistent with POSIX TZ settings in the Zone names, 60# even though this is the opposite of what many people expect. 61# POSIX has positive signs west of Greenwich, but many people expect 62# positive signs east of Greenwich. For example, TZ='Etc/GMT+4' uses 63# the abbreviation "-04" and corresponds to 4 hours behind UT 64# (i.e. west of Greenwich) even though many people would expect it to 65# mean 4 hours ahead of UT (i.e. east of Greenwich). 66 67# Earlier incarnations of this package were not POSIX-compliant, 68# and had lines such as 69# Zone GMT-12 -12 - GMT-1200 70# We did not want things to change quietly if someone accustomed to the old 71# way does a 72# zic -l GMT-12 73# so we moved the names into the Etc subdirectory. 74# Also, the time zone abbreviations are now compatible with %z. 75 76Zone Etc/GMT-14 14 - +14 77Zone Etc/GMT-13 13 - +13 78Zone Etc/GMT-12 12 - +12 79Zone Etc/GMT-11 11 - +11 80Zone Etc/GMT-10 10 - +10 81Zone Etc/GMT-9 9 - +09 82Zone Etc/GMT-8 8 - +08 83Zone Etc/GMT-7 7 - +07 84Zone Etc/GMT-6 6 - +06 85Zone Etc/GMT-5 5 - +05 86Zone Etc/GMT-4 4 - +04 87Zone Etc/GMT-3 3 - +03 88Zone Etc/GMT-2 2 - +02 89Zone Etc/GMT-1 1 - +01 90Zone Etc/GMT+1 -1 - -01 91Zone Etc/GMT+2 -2 - -02 92Zone Etc/GMT+3 -3 - -03 93Zone Etc/GMT+4 -4 - -04 94Zone Etc/GMT+5 -5 - -05 95Zone Etc/GMT+6 -6 - -06 96Zone Etc/GMT+7 -7 - -07 97Zone Etc/GMT+8 -8 - -08 98Zone Etc/GMT+9 -9 - -09 99Zone Etc/GMT+10 -10 - -10 100Zone Etc/GMT+11 -11 - -11 101Zone Etc/GMT+12 -12 - -12 102
