TIMEZONE(3)		    BSD Programmer's Manual		   TIMEZONE(3)

NAME
     timezone - return the timezone abbreviation

SYNOPSIS
     #include <time.h>

     char *
     timezone(int zone, int dst);

DESCRIPTION
     This interface is for compatibility only; it is impossible to reliably
     map timezone's arguments to a time zone abbreviation.  See ctime(3).

     The timezone() function returns a pointer to a time zone abbreviation for
     the specified zone and dst values.	 Zone is the number of minutes west of
     GMT and dst is non-zero if daylight savings time is in effect.

SEE ALSO
     ctime(3)

HISTORY
     A timezone() function appeared in Version 7 AT&T UNIX.

BUGS
     The timezone() function may not be safely called concurrently from multi-
     ple threads, e.g., the interfaces described by pthreads(3).
