Some time-handling patches from Paul Eggert: * editfns.c (Fcurrent_time_zone): Take an optional argument specifying what (absolute) time should be used to determine the current time zone. Yield just offset and name of time zone, including DST correction. Yield time zone offset in seconds, not minutes. (lisp_time_argument, difftm): New functions. (Fcurrent_time_string): Use lisp_time_argument. * systime.h (EMACS_CURRENT_TIME_ZONE, EMACS_GET_TZ_OFFSET, EMACS_GET_TZ_NAMES): Remove. * config.h.in: Add HAVE_TM_ZONE.

;;; Commentary:

;; This package of functions emulates and somewhat extends the venerable
;; TECO's `register' feature, which permits you to save various useful
;; pieces of buffer state to named variables.  The entry points are
;; documented in the Emacs user's manual.
