Thanks, but I looked at it and doesn't refer to ":characters" or say what
values (in characters) can this variable have.


>> START SNIP
TZ
 Timezone information. The contents of the environment variable named TZ
are used by the ctime(), localtime(), strftime() and mktime() functions,
and by various utilities, to override the default timezone. The value of
TZ has one of the two forms (spaces inserted for clarity):

:characters

 or:

std offset dst offset, rule
<< END SNIP
