@kwiley It is easy if your location is static and you handle the date for the change; you are doing it correctly.
Full Unix support is not easy as it involves knowing the DST parameters for every country in the world. And they don't always get it right: I have an old project with firmware from an ancient Unix build which changes to and from DST a week out. But only if the Sunday of the date of change happens to be the last day of the month.
