wclock-0.1.4.2021e

wclock is an ideal world clock solution for Linux users who spend a lot of time in terminal emulators and tty:

• CLI-based: check times from around the world without breaking workflow by leaving the terminal.
• Unsure of the correct time zone? No problem. Search from over 2000 cities worldwide and almost every country.
• What time will it be in Barcelona at 11:00 tomorrow in your local time zone (and vice-versa)? Check easily.
• wclock passes time zone/offset and date string information to date automatically for extra convenience.
• wclock does not access the internet to check the time.

wclock is light on dependencies, and should be compatible with nearly any Linux installation that has the GNU version of both coreutils and grep. See INSTALL for installation instructions! For more information about wclock, refer to man wclock.

This version of wclock was checked against tzdata-2021e, but is compatible with versions dating from 2012 onward.

Changes

• Fixes and improvements for zoneinfo directory validation:
  • Check the right and posix subdirectories first
  • Moved runtime zoneinfo validation into the main script
  • Added missing zoneinfo subdirectories to the checking method
• Slight wording changes.
• Adjusted versioning information to indicate that wclock works with the latest tzdata (2021e).

Future developments

• A wclock release with any appropriate changes to extras, deprecated and compat will be made when the next tzdata version comes out.
