NAME
       Time::Zone -- miscellaneous timezone manipulations routines
SYNOPSIS
               use Time::Zone;
               print tz2zone();
               print tz2zone($ENV{'TZ'});
               print tz2zone($ENV{'TZ'}, time());
               print tz2zone($ENV{'TZ'}, undef, $isdst);
               $offset = tz_local_offset();
               $offset = tz_offset($TZ);
DESCRIPTION
       This is a collection of miscellaneous timezone manipulation routines.
       "tz2zone()" parses the TZ environment variable and returns a timezone
       string suitable for inclusion in date(1)-like output.  It opionally
       takes a timezone string, a time, and a is-dst flag.
       "tz_local_offset()" determins the offset from GMT time in seconds.  It
       only does the calculation once.
       "tz_offset()" determines the offset from GMT in seconds of a specified
       timezone.
       "tz_name()" determines the name of the timezone based on its offset
