SYNOPSIS

     char *
     timezone(int zone, int dst);

DESCRIPTION

     This interface is for compatibility only; it is impossible to reliably
     map timezone's arguments to a time zone abbreviation.  See ctime(3).

     The timezone() function returns a pointer to a time zone abbreviation for
     the specified zone and dst values.  The zone argument is the number of
     minutes west of GMT and dst is non-zero if daylight savings time is in
     effect.
