TZ=UTC is not portable, but TZ=UTC0 has been standardized by POSIX for many years, and is portable to most pre-POSIX hosts. Here's the current standard in this area: http://www.opengroup.org/onlinepubs/007904975/basedefs/xbd_chap08.html#tag_08_03 Some of the TZ stuff is new in the 2001 edition (e.g., '<zone>' for internationalization), but the TZ=UTC0 part has been there since the late 1980s I think. _______________________________________________ Bug-coreutils mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://mail.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/bug-coreutils
