Guys, Ran into a little problem when I tried to process the latest TimeZone files ... a few rules, such as the one listed below, didn't process correctly ... I think there are extra tabs separating the data ... have you had any other complaints?

Tabs should be treated like any other white space character, so if there are two tabs instead of one that shouldn't cause any difference in the meaning of the data. The data I received in your email doesn't match what's in the latest tz release, so I suspect there's a problem in transmission somewhere.

As Paul Eggert said, this seems to only be in your copy, but the zic input format is reasonably insensitive to whitespace - your issue is the missing "-" at the end of two of the non-DST lines. -- Random832
