Match names to timezones? #37

Closed decentral1se closed 1 year ago

decentral1se commented 1 year ago

When working with several timezones on a daily basis, it can be confusing to remember which timezone corresponds to which person (or persons, in my case) you want to find a suitable time to meet with. It'd be great if we could include names which match timezones. Would be really handy if this would be configurable.

Hi @decentral1se!

Thanks for taking the time to write about this.

If I understand correctly, you'd like to change the "label" of a time zone? You can already achieve that using a , to separate the tzdb-name of a time zone from its label.

For instance, while working with Mustapha in Dubaï, and Rodrigo in Canary, I could use something like:

env TZ_LIST='Asia/Dubai,Mustapha;Atlantic/Canary,Rodrigo' tz

Hope this helps!
