tzselect - view timezones
tzselect
This manual page explains how you can use the
tzselect utility to view
the installed timezone. It comes handy when you want to know what time it is
in other countries, or if you just wonder what timezones exist.
tzselect is called without any parameters from the shell. It shows a list
of about one dozen geographic areas one can roughly recognize as continents.
After choosing a geographic area by number, a list of countries and cities in
this area will be shown.
You can press the
Enter key to reprint the list. To choose a timezone,
just press the number left to it. If your input is invalid, the list will be
reprinted.
You may press
Ctrl-C to interrupt the script at any time.
Note that
tzselect will not actually change the timezone for you. Use
'dpkg-reconfigure tzdata' to achieve this.
