Descr: Sets AmigaOS clock to local time when system clock is set
to GMT (so NetBSD will have the 'right' timezone :-).
This is a little script that will set you AmigaDos clock to local time
when your system clock is set to GMT. I find it better than hacking the
kernel to expect local time on the system clock. Easier, too :^)
The nasty thing is that when you set your clock using the Time prefence
utlity, you have to save as GMT, then go back and do a use on localtime.
This also applied to utlities designed to set you clock from another system
(there's one for AmiTCP that I use occasionally).
I have no idea who wrote it originally. It was given to me by my brother
David, and I don't think he wrote it, but maybe. It's just one of those
things that floats around.
