[PATCH 1/3] tzset.3: Incorrect TZ string representation

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



The TZ string representation indicates that the start/end
rules are required; this is incorrect.

Updated the TZ string format to the POSIX specification and
improve its readability by having only the optional parts in
italics.
