5 # Ask the user about the time zone, and output the resulting TZ value to stdout.
6 # Interact with the user via stderr and stdin.
8 # Contributed by Paul Eggert.
10 # Porting notes:
12 # This script requires several features of the Korn shell.
13 # If your host lacks the Korn shell,
14 # you can use either of the following free programs instead:
16 # <a href=ftp://ftp.gnu.org/pub/gnu/>
17 # Bourne-Again shell (bash)
18 # </a>
20 # <a href=ftp://ftp.cs.mun.ca/pub/pdksh/pdksh.tar.gz>
21 # Public domain ksh
22 # </a>
24 # This script also uses several features of modern awk programs.
25 # If your host lacks awk, or has an old awk that does not conform to Posix.2,
26 # you can use either of the following free programs instead:
28 # <a href=ftp://ftp.gnu.org/pub/gnu/>
29 # GNU awk (gawk)
30 # </a>
32 # <a href=ftp://ftp.whidbey.net/pub/brennan/>
33 # mawk
34 # </a>
37 # Specify default values for environment variables if they are unset.

39 : ${TZDIR=@TZDIR@}
