Easy question:
	Which values are valid for the TZ environment variable?

I looked all the manpages (linux & windows manpages) but found nothing
refering to this variable. I know that perl and cygwin look at this
variable to display localtime and I need to know if my configuration is
set correctly.

thanx!
m4c.

Might not be for cygwin, but valid on at least one unix, and very explicit
though it doesn't list the timezone abbreviations:
