C SYNOPSIS
       #include <pcp/pmapi.h>

       int pmNewZone(const char *tz);

       cc ... -lpcp

DESCRIPTION
       The current reporting timezone affects the timezone used by pmCtime(3) and pmLocaltime(3).

       The argument tz defines a timezone string, in the format described for the TZ environment variable, see environ(5).

       pmNewZone  sets	the  current reporting timezone, and returns a value that may be used in a subsequent call to pmUseZone(3) to restore this
       reporting timezone.
