tai64nlocal(8)		     System Manager's Manual		  tai64nlocal(8)

NAME
     tai64nlocal  -  converts precise TAI64N timestamps to a human-readable for-
     mat.

SYNOPSIS
     tai64nlocal

DESCRIPTION
     tai64nlocal reads lines from stdin. If  a	line  does  not  begin	with  @,
     tai64nlocal  writes  it  to stdout without change. If a line begins with @,
     tai64nlocal looks for a timestamp after the @, in	the  format  printed  by
     tai64n(8),  and  writes  the line to stdout with the timestamp converted to
     local time in ISO format: YYYY-MM-DD HH:MM:SS.SSSSSSSSS.

     For example, in the US/Pacific time zone, the input line

       @4000000037c219bf2ef02e94 mark

     should be printed as

       1999-08-23 21:03:43.787492500 mark

     Beware, however, that the current implementation of tai64nlocal  relies  on
     the  UNIX	localtime library routine to find the local time. Some localtime
     implementations use a broken time scale that does not account for leap sec-
     onds. On systems that use the Olson tz library (with  an  up-to-date  leap-
     second  table), you can fix this problem by setting your time zone to, e.g,
     right/US/Pacific instead of US/Pacific.

     Beware also that most localtime implementations are not Y2038-compliant.

     tai64nlocal does not allocate any memory after it starts,	except	possibly
     inside localtime.

EXIT CODES
     tai64nlocal  exits 0 when it sees end of input. It exits 111 without an er-
     ror message if it has trouble reading stdin or writing stdout.
