Title
Body
In Perl, I'd like to look up the localtime in a specific timezone. I had been using this technique: $ENV{TZ} = 'America/Los_Angeles'; my $now = scalar localtime; print "It is now $now\n"; # WORKS: prints the current time in LA However, this is not reliable -- notably, if I prepend another localtime() call before setting $ENV{TZ}, it breaks: localtime(); $ENV{TZ} = 'America/Los_Angeles'; my $now = scalar localtime; print "It is now $now\n"; # FAILS: prints the current time for here instead of LA Is there a better way to do this?
