Subject: problem with procs/datetime.icn on Unix, Icon 9.3.1
X-Mailer: VM 6.43 under 20.4 "Emerald" XEmacs Lucid

Status: RO
Hello,
It seems to me that SecToUnixDate(sec,hoursFromGmt) in procs/datetime.icn does
not handle daylight savings time. That is, when I use a C program to convert a
number of seconds since 1/1/1970 00:00:00 to a Unix data/time, I get a 1
hr. difference from what SecToUnixDate(sec,-5) reports. (-5 is my current
hoursFromGmt).
Is this well-known? What can be done about it? Thanks.
Kostas Oikonomou
