tktz 0.1
========

This program will help you to guess "what time is it now" in other
country. It reads special timezone (TZ zone descriptions) file in which
locates zone names. If program can open such file it shows you a list of
the countries and zone name for each entry.

Written & tested on FreeBSD 6.0; must go without restrictions on every
UNIX-like OS (except HP-UX, I think). Windows? For than moment answer is
negative, let me know if I'm wrong.

INSTALL
-------

tktz requires Tcl/Tk at least version 8.4.

1. Copy all distribution files in directory you like, for example:

% cp -R tktz-x.y /usr/local/lib/tktz

2. Make symlink to executable file:

% ln -s /usr/local/lib/tktz/tktz /usr/local/bin/tktz

3. Make sure you have zone.tab file (usually placed nearly
/usr/share/timezone/). If in your case this path is invalid, insert into
your ``.Xdefaults'' line:

*Tktz.l_file_val.text: /path/to/another/timezone/file

or start application with -xrm command line option:

% tktz -xrm '*Tktz.l_file_val.text: /path/to/another/timezone/file'

Any such command line argument will override its equivalent from in
''.Xdefaults''.
