    The tz database

    The public-domain time zone database contains code and data that represent the history of local time for many representative locations around the globe. It is updated periodically to reflect changes made by political bodies to UTC offsets and daylight-saving rules. -This database (often called tz or zoneinfo) +This database (often called tz or zoneinfo) is used by several implementations, including GNU/Linux, @@ -41,20 +41,45 @@ including NetBSD, OpenBSD, DJGPP, -HP-UX, +HP-UX, IRIX, -SCO OpenServer, +Open UNIX, Solaris, and -UnixWare. -In the tz database's +Tru64.

    +Each location in the database represents a national region where all +clocks keeping local time have agreed since 1970. +Locations are identified by continent or ocean and then by the name of +the location, which is typically the largest city within the region. +For example, America/New_York +represents most of the US eastern time zone; +America/Indianapolis represents most of Indiana, which +uses eastern time without daylight saving time (DST); +America/Detroit represents most of Michigan, which uses +eastern time but with different DST rules in 1975; +and other entries represent smaller regions like Starke County, +Kentucky, which switched from central to eastern time in 1991. +To use the database, set the TZ environment variable to +the location's full name, e.g., TZ="America/New_York".
