    Post Simple digital date with dual time zones (12 hr format) + weather

    i was looking for a solution that used the time zones setup on the application instead of a hard coded one. I didn't find one, so I wrote my own script: (string.sub("{tz1t}",1,-4) + 0 == 0 and "12" or string.sub("{tz1t}",1,-4) + 0 < 13 and string.sub("{tz1t}",1,-4) or...
