Re: Formatting time as local time?

[Elena]

Thanks Tim. Indeed "(current-time-zone)" showed my timezone was +0000.

Now I have to make sense of using the "TZ" environment variable and
"(set-time-zone-rule)". It seems I can't get sensible results. Here is
what I think I should use:

  (setenv "TZ" "Europe/Rome") ;; I don't know whether this value is
correct, since I can't find a list of values.
  (set-time-zone-rule "GMT+1")
  (format-time-string "%a, %e %b %Y %T %Z" (nth 5 (file-attributes my-
file-name)) nil) ;; nil -> Local Time

However I'm getting a wrong local time (three hours before the correct
one).

OS is Windows XP.
