From 21fbc0a19366f89638a30eef2b53c6d4baafdb88 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Paul Eggert Date: Thu, 22 Jun 2023 13:44:50 -0700 Subject: Call "CST" a time zone abbreviation, not a name In documentation, call strings like "CST" time zone abbreviations, not time zone names. This terminology is more precise, and is what tzdb uses. A string like "CST" is ambiguous and does not fully name a time zone. --- posix/bits/posix1_lim.h | 2 +- 1 file changed, 1 insertion(+), 1 deletion(-) (limited to 'posix') diff --git a/posix/bits/posix1_lim.h b/posix/bits/posix1_lim.h index c2ec164228..e83d6254d5 100644 --- a/posix/bits/posix1_lim.h +++ b/posix/bits/posix1_lim.h @@ -134,7 +134,7 @@ /* Maximum number of characters in a tty name. */ #define _POSIX_TTY_NAME_MAX 9 -/* Maximum length of a timezone name (element of `tzname'). */ +/* Maximum length of a time zone abbreviation (element of 'tzname'). */ #ifdef __USE_XOPEN2K # define _POSIX_TZNAME_MAX 6 #else -- cgit 1.4.1
