Item8902: Improve LocalTimePlugin usage info
Priority: Low
Current State: New
Released In:
Target Release: n/a
The
LocalTimePlugin accepts timezone names - these aren't always easy for the end user to find.
Here's a 1-line shell script that will generate a topic containing the valid time zone names for the local system. Change /usr/share/zoneinfo to match TZDIR - it's default can be extracted from
man tzselect.
It could be adapted to update the plugin's topic during install...
find /usr/share/zoneinfo -type f |sort -t/ -k1 -k2 | sed -e'$!N;s/\n/ | /' -e'$!N;s/\n/ | /' -e'$!N;s/\n/ | /' -e's/^\(.*\)$/| \1 |/' -e's./usr/share/zoneinfo/..g' >data/Main/TimeZones.txt
