Description

The global variable _tzname is an array of pointers to strings containing abbreviations for time zone names. _tzname[0] points to a three-character string with the value of the time zone name from the TZ environment string. The global variable _tzname[1] points to a three-character string with the value of the daylight saving time zone name from the TZ environment string. If no daylight saving name is present, _tzname[1] points to a null string.

On Win32, the value of _tzname is obtained from the operating system.
