tzselect - select a timezone
tzselect
The
tzselect program asks the user for information about the current
location, and outputs the resulting timezone description to standard output.
The output is suitable as a value for the
TZ environment variable.
All interaction with the user is done via standard input and standard error.
The exit status is zero if a timezone was successfully obtained from the user,
and is nonzero otherwise.
