Description

Use tzset to set your TZ variable. In POSIX-compatible shells like bash, dash, mksh, or zsh:

export TZ=$(tzset)
      

In csh-compatible shells like tcsh:

setenv TZ `tzset`
      

The tzset tool reads the current timezone from Windows and generates a POSIX-compatible timezone information for the TZ environment variable from that information. That's all there is to it. For the way how to use it, see the above usage information.
