  30   29  # We use POSIX-style signs in the Zone names and the output abbreviations,
  31   30  # even though this is the opposite of what many people expect.
  32   31  # POSIX has positive signs west of Greenwich, but many people expect
  33   32  # positive signs east of Greenwich.  For example, TZ='Etc/GMT+4' uses
  34   33  # the abbreviation "GMT+4" and corresponds to 4 hours behind UT
  35   34  # (i.e. west of Greenwich) even though many people would expect it to
  36   35  # mean 4 hours ahead of UT (i.e. east of Greenwich).
  37   36  #
  38   37  # In the draft 5 of POSIX 1003.1-200x, the angle bracket notation allows for
  39   38  # TZ='<GMT-4>+4'; if you want time zone abbreviations conforming to
  40   39  # ISO 8601 you can use TZ='<-0400>+4'.  Thus the commonly-expected
  41   40  # offset is kept within the angle bracket (and is used for display)
  42   41  # while the POSIX sign is kept outside the angle bracket (and is used
  43   42  # for calculation).
  44   43  #
  45   44  # Do not use a TZ setting like TZ='GMT+4', which is four hours behind
  46   45  # GMT but uses the completely misleading abbreviation "GMT".

  48   47  # Earlier incarnations of this package were not POSIX-compliant,

  51   50  # We did not want things to change quietly if someone accustomed to the old
  52   51  # way does a
  53   52  #               zic -l GMT-12
  54   53  # so we moved the names into the Etc subdirectory.
