timezone
(int
zone, int dst);
This interface is available for compatibility only and will
disappear in a future software release; it is impossible to reliably map
timezone's arguments to a time zone abbreviation. See
ctime(3); see
tzset(3) for the new definition
of this interface.
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.
A timezone
() function appeared in
Version 7 AT&T UNIX.
