NAME¶
gworldclock - Displays time and date in specified time zones.
SYNOPSIS¶
gworldclock [
-f FILE ]
DESCRIPTION¶
gworldclock displays the time and date of specified time zones using a
GTK+ interface. It also allows the zones to be "rendezvoused" or
"synchronised" to a time other than the current time.
The time zones may be chosen from the list given in the GUI user interface. The
zones available are generated from the data in /usr/share/zoneinfo/zone.tab.
The chosen set of zones is stored in ${HOME}/.tzlist by default, but an
alternate file may be specified at the command line via -f. Alternatively this
file may be created by hand in TZ format. The zone list is kept in a format
consistent with the shell script tzwatch, currently found in twclock. The
format consists of one TZ string per line, optionally followed by a
human-friendly string enclosed in inverted commas ("), providing a name
for the zone.
OPTIONS¶
- -f FILE
- Read zone list from FILE instead of ${HOME}/.tzlist.
SEE ALSO¶
tzwatch (1)
