Hi,

as of SVN 258, the local time is shown, followed by the timezone (GMT +/- offset-in-hours).

I think you are correct Blake.
IIRC @ IPSA we used UTC internally for things saved to HD.
But displayed local time on the Terminal which was an IBM 2741 with an APL golf ball.

(FWIW We also had a really really precise external clock custom built for us which we used for date/time things rather than the System 360 clock.)

Greetings,
Perhaps the time they are showing is local and the "(GMT-4)" is showing its relationship to GMT.

    Hi,

    GNU APL is following the IBM APL2 language reference manual as
    much as possible (so that we can
    use it as GNU APL reference and need no write our own one).

    It says:

    "For example:
          )WSID
    THISWS
          )SAVE
    1992-03-27 21 .51.09 (GMT-4) THISWS

    Note: The system response includes the workspace name when it is
    omitted from
    the )SAVE command."

    The only difference I can see right now is that the workspace ID
    is not shown if omitted in the )SAVE command.
    I will fix that. The rest (GMT offset etc) should remain as is
    (it would also break my testcases to change it).
