Re: locale on cygwin

[Heiko Peter Schmidt]

Hi  there,

1. In my shell (zsh-4.0.4) the ls command always shows times in UTC.

2. In my perl scripts the usage of localtime gives also UTC-time


Are these problems locale-based?

How can Iget rid of them?


regards,
Heiko

Yes.

Set your TZ variable correctly.  Review the email archives on this subject
