@@ -426,17 +426,9 @@ a clock retreat caused by a change in UTC offset,
.IR zic
produces a single transition to daylight saving at the new UTC offset
(without any change in wall clock time).
If you want two separate transitions
(for example,
a one-hour retreat from
U. S. Eastern Standard Time
to
U. S. Central Standard Time
followed one hour later by a one-hour advance to
U. S. Central Daylight Time),
you can artificially
(and slightly inaccurately)
specify the UTC offset change as occuring a single second too early.
To get separate transitions
use multiple zone continuation lines
specifying transition instants using universal time.
