The keys used to be localized in Windows NT because the key names were standard time names. Localized Windows NT needed to translate keys to localize time zone names. Since Windows 2000, if I remember it correctly, Std was added so that they no longer needed to translate the keys. But the Std and Dlt values are translated in localized Windows. Please note that multi-lingual Windows or adding locales to English Windows doesn't have localized time zone names (or has English time zone names). Thanks, Masayoshi Kevin Kenny wrote:

As I mentioned - but somehow my messages aren't making it through to the list - I use the Windows time zone information values, rather than the keys when I'm doing the translation for the Tcl 'clock' subsystem. The keys are indeed localized, which renders them useless.
