To quickly check the time in other parts of the world, you may wanna add some lines to your ~/.login file.


#timezone
alias Seoul env TZ=Asia/Seoul date
alias Vienna env TZ=Europe/Vienna date
alias LA env TZ=US/Pacific date
Find all possible locations in /usr -> share -> zoneinfo. Open each folder within that directory to see the available cities, as shown in the Asia and Europe examples above.
