INTRODUCTION

This is an MCP/2.1 package written for the JHCore MCP/2.1 implementation
for MOO.

You can find out more about MCP/2.1 here:

    http://www.awns.com/mcp/

The package dns-com-awns-timezone allows the client to send the
user's time-zone to the server.  Server-side applications can make
use of this information.


Client to Server messages

dns-com-awns-timezone timezone: STR <the 3-letter time-zone abbreviation>

    usually sent by the client after the MCP negotiation phase.
    The server should record the time-zone information.


Server-side API

package:get_timezone(OBJ who) => STR <time-zone abbreviation>

    get the time-zone information recorded for user object 'who'.
    If no time-zone information is recorded this verb returns a
    suitable default value.

INSTALL

As a non-wizard user port the MOO-code in the file dns-com-awns-timezone.moo.
You'll need to load the file into a text editor and use search and
replace functions to replace the following strings with their
relevant values:

    __PACKAGE__		object id of generic MCP package
    __NEW__		object id of newly @create'd package
    __REGISTRY__	object id of $mcp.registry

To add the package to the MCP Registry, become a wizard and type:

    @add-package __NEW__ to __REGISTRY__

The package should be detected by your client the next time you
connect to the MOO.
