Very ugly indeed. Well, I think offset is pretty much enough for most
practical business purposes, and it doesn't block the way for 3rd party
tools to implement "proper" (if we can use this word for the TZ system
of the world in practice ;) TZ support with all the gory details of it.
I have no idea however, how to introduce offset in syntaxes in an
elegant way, especially in the fixed position format.
I believe that the last time this came up, I pointed out that I had
completed all the necessary julian functions in both ANSI C and Clipper
code and have had it posted for over 10 years on The Oasis. But as far
as I know, nobody looked at it.
I used these functions successfully in Time and Attendance software that
was sold all over the US for a decade.
The format is simple and the conversion functions are very fast.
http://www.the-oasis.net/files/general/julian.zip contains the .prg
code, I have the .c code here somewhere if you want it.
