Variable: legacy-style-world-list

legacy-style-world-list is a customizable variable defined in time.el.gz.

Value

(("PST8PDT" "Seattle") ("EST5EDT" "New York") ("GMT0BST" "London")
 ("CET-1CDT" "Paris") ("IST-5:30" "Bangalore") ("JST-9" "Tokyo"))

Documentation

Alist of traditional-style time zones and places for world-clock.

Each element has the form (TIMEZONE LABEL). TIMEZONE should be a string of the form:

     std[+|-]offset[dst[offset][,date[/time],date[/time]]]

See the documentation of the TZ environment variable on your system, for more details about the format of TIMEZONE. LABEL is a string to display as the label of that TIMEZONE's time

This is the only option that has effect on MS-Windows, where you also cannot specify the [offset][,date[/time],date[/time]] part.

This variable was added, or its default value changed, in Emacs 23.1.
