NAME

       gworldclock - Displays time and date in specified time zones.

SYNOPSIS

       gworldclock [ -f FILE ]

DESCRIPTION

       gworldclock  displays the time and date of specified time zones using a
       GTK+ interface. It also  allows  the  zones  to  be  "rendezvoused"  or
       "synchronised" to a time other than the current time.

       The  time  zones  may  be  chosen  from  the list given in the GUI user
       interface.   The  zones  available  are  generated  from  the  data  in
       /usr/share/zoneinfo/zone.tab.   The  chosen  set  of zones is stored in
       ${HOME}/.tzlist by default, but an alternate file may be  specified  at
       the command line via -f. Alternatively this file may be created by hand
       in TZ format. The zone list is kept in a  format  consistent  with  the
       shell  script tzwatch, currently found in twclock.  The format consists
       of one TZ string per line,  optionally  followed  by  a  human-friendly
       string  enclosed in inverted commas ("), providing a name for the zone.

OPTIONS

       -f FILE
              Read zone list from FILE instead of ${HOME}/.tzlist.

SEE ALSO

       tzwatch (1)
