Displaying dateTime in another Time Zone

[Karen K]

Is there a possibility to format the dateTime value that is shows the time in another time zone, for example UTC or local mean time (LMT)?

Example (for Central European Time and longitude=13.040°):

$current.dateTime.raw ==> 1622502001

$current.dateTime.format(...) ==> 01.06.2021 01:00:01 CEST 

?? ==> 31.05.2021 23:00:01 UTC   

?? ==> 31.05.2021 23:52:11 LMT

There is not. The reason is that it would require either Python V3.9, and/or another pre-requisite, tzdata.

Still, it might be possible to make it optional, similar to how pyephem is dealt with. That would allow something like

$current.dateTime.tz("LMT")

This is something I've thought of frequently, but you're the first person who has actually asked about it!
