+NAME
+
+ zdump - time zone dumper
+
+SYNOPSIS
+ zdump [ --version ] [ -v ] [ -c [loyear,]hiyear ] [ zonename
+ ... ]
+
+DESCRIPTION
+ Zdump prints the current time in each zonename named on the
+ command line.
+
+ These options are available:
+
+ --version
+ Output version information and exit.
+
+ -v For each zonename on the command line, print the time
+ at the lowest possible time value, the time one day
+ after the lowest possible time value, the times both
+ one second before and exactly at each detected time
+ discontinuity, the time at one day less than the
+ highest possible time value, and the time at the
+ highest possible time value, Each line ends with
+ isdst=1 if the given time is Daylight Saving Time or
+ isdst=0 otherwise.
+
+ -c [loyear,]hiyear
+ Cut off verbose output near the start of the given
+ year(s). By default, the program cuts off verbose
+ output near the starts of the years -500 and 2500.
+
+LIMITATIONS
+ The -v option may not be used on systems with floating-point
+ time_t values that are neither float nor double.
+
+ Time discontinuities are found by sampling the results
+ returned by localtime at twelve-hour intervals. This works
+ in all real-world cases; one can construct artificial time
+ zones for which this fails.
