This was experimental, and it appears that the tzwinnow
approach will be better. We need to cut a new stable
release soon, and the -t option might make it harder to
integrate tzwinnow later, so let's omit -t for now.
* .gitignore: Remove time.tab.
* Makefile (ZONETABTYPE): Remove. All uses removed.
(time.tab): Remove. All uses removed.
* Theory: Omit discussion of time.tab.
* zone-time.awk: Remove.
* tzselect.8: Omit -t and time.tab.
* tzselect.ksh (ZONETABTYPE): Remove. All uses removed.
Remove -t ZONETABTYPE option.
* zone.tab: Restore first comment line, since there's no longer
a need to distinguish this file from time.tab.
* tzselect.ksh (LC_ALL): Don't set this, so that the user can
use the locale's decimal point in coordinates.
(convert_coord): Rename from cvt1. All callers changed.
Support more ISO 6709 forms.
* tzselect.8: Document -c better, including the new forms.
These let the user select TZ based on geographical coordinates.
Combining '-c COORD' with '-t time' better insulates the user from
issues of nationality.
* tzselect.8 (SYNOPSIS, OPTIONS): Document the new options.
* tzselect.ksh: Implement them, using the great-circle special
case of the Vicenty formula for distances on ellipsoids.
(LC_ALL): Set to C, since tzselect is English only. That way, we
treat decimal-points in -c option operands the same in all environments.
(usage): Document new options. Document existing ones better.
(output_distances): New variable.
This is a backwards-compatible way of transitioning to a less
politically-charged approach to choosing TZ values. A new time
zone table time.tab acts like zone.tab, except it omits TZ values
that are present only for political reasons. tzselect has a new
"-t zonetabtype" option that lets users select which time zone table
to use, and installers can select the default table. The zone.tab
file does not change, and the default tzselect table for now is
zone.tab. This avoids the backward-compatibility concerns
expressed on the tz mailing list; see, for example,
the discussion surrounding Derick Rethans's comments in
<http://mm.icann.org/pipermail/tz/2013-August/019544.html>
* .gitignore: Add time.tab.
* Makefile (ZONETABTYPE): New macro.
(TABDATA): Add time.tab.
(all): Depend on $(TABDATA).
(install): Do not depend on $(TABDATA), since $(DATA) includes it.
Install time.tab too.
(time.tab): New rule.
(tzselect.tab): Substitute ZONETABTYPE.
* zone-time.awk: New file.
* tzselect.8: Document new options, and --help and --version while
we're at it.
* tzselect.ksh (ZONETABTYPE): New var.
Implement -t ZONETABTYPE option.
Check that no extra operands are given.
* zone.tab: Change first comment line, to distinguish the two
tables better.
