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. --- timezone/tst-bz28707.c | 2 +- 1 file changed, 1 insertion(+), 1 deletion(-) (limited to 'timezone') diff --git a/timezone/tst-bz28707.c b/timezone/tst-bz28707.c index e29546c331..6027c40679 100644 --- a/timezone/tst-bz28707.c +++ b/timezone/tst-bz28707.c @@ -37,7 +37,7 @@ do_test (void) tzset (); return - /* Sanity-check that we got the right timezone-name for DST.
