3 # These entries are mostly present for historical reasons, so that
4 # people in areas not otherwise covered by the tz files could "zic -l"
5 # to a time zone that was right for their area. These days, the
6 # tz files cover almost all the inhabited world, so there's little
7 # need now for the entries that are not on UTC.
13 # The following link uses older naming conventions,
14 # but it belongs here, not in the file `backward',
15 # as functions like gmtime load the "GMT" file to handle leap seconds properly.
16 # We want this to work even on installations that omit the other older names.

27 # We use POSIX-style signedness in the names and output,
28 # internal-style signedness in the specifications.
29 # For example, TZ=Etc/GMT+4 corresponds to 4 hours _behind_ UTC;
30 # it is equivalent to TZ=GMT+4, which is implemented directly as per POSIX.
32 # Earlier incarnations of this package were not POSIX-compliant,
33 # and had lines such as
34 # Zone GMT-12 -12 - GMT-1200
35 # We did not want things to change quietly if someone accustomed to the old
38 # so we moved the names into the Etc subdirectory.
