Re: Script to Generate Concurrent Times

I implemented my little algorithm... it works fine with a combo of nix TZ look ups + LC's native convert tools pretty straight forward. Thanks Devin! Do nix TZ times shift for the Daily Light Savings times when that goes on and off in various zones? see: http://dev.himalayanacademy.com/tests/

Tnx for the feedback. I think window 7 and 8 want 512x512 icons, tho. I have a free one for windows that goes up to 256 and the app shows a blank icon for the largest size. I've looked at icofx and they want a monthly fee. I guess I could sign up for a month, make all my icons, then UN-sign up.
