[Gllug] OT: Tcl and timezone info

[Hong Chyr]

I think the localtime commands are still part of TclX, since I tried them out on core Tcl 8.4 and the shell returned an unknown command error.

Tcl has a reasonably complete 1:1 mapping to the libc time functions[1].
So just use localtime, strftime etc., as you would from a C program.
