List Of Tz Database Time Zones
This is a list of time zones in the tz database release 2012c. The list is derived from the zones, links, and rules specified in zone.tab and the 7 "continent files" – africa, antarctica, asia, australasia, europe, northamerica, and southamerica.
The four columns in zone.tab are mapped into columns 1–4 (marked with *) in the table below. The file contains the following comments:
# This file contains a table with the following columns: # 1. ISO 3166 2-character country code. See the file `iso3166.tab'. # 2. Latitude and longitude of the zone's principal location # in ISO 6709 sign-degrees-minutes-seconds format, # either +-DDMM+-DDDMM or +-DDMMSS+-DDDMMSS, # first latitude (+ is north), then longitude (+ is east). # 3. Zone name used in value of TZ environment variable. # 4. Comments; present if and only if the country has multiple rows.The UTC offsets (columns 5 and 6) are parsed from the "continent files" and are in the format {+|-}hh:mm where the sign is + for east of UTC or - for west of UTC, and hh and mm are hours and minutes, respectively. The UTC DST offset is different from the UTC offset for zones where daylight saving time is observed (see individual time zone pages for details).
The table is sorted by TZ by default.

Famous quotes containing the words list of, list, time and/or zones:
“Religious literature has eminent examples, and if we run over our private list of poets, critics, philanthropists and philosophers, we shall find them infected with this dropsy and elephantiasis, which we ought to have tapped.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
“I am opposed to writing about the private lives of living authors and psychoanalyzing them while they are alive. Criticism is getting all mixed up with a combination of the Junior F.B.I.- men, discards from Freud and Jung and a sort of Columnist peep- hole and missing laundry list school.... Every young English professor sees gold in them dirty sheets now. Imagine what they can do with the soiled sheets of four legal beds by the same writer and you can see why their tongues are slavering.”
—Ernest Hemingway (1899–1961)
“For the shoe pinches, even though it fits perfectly.
Apples were made to be gathered, also the whole host of the world’s ailments and troubles.
There is no time like the present for giving in to this temptation.
Tomorrow you’ll weep what of it?”
—John Ashbery (b. 1927)
“The technological landscape of the present day has enfranchised its own electorates—the inhabitants of marketing zones in the consumer goods society, television audiences and news magazine readerships... vote with money at the cash counter rather than with the ballot paper at the polling booth.”
—J.G. (James Graham)
