If you check the release notes, you'll notice this function was added in

* CT assumes your computer is set to UTC. If you wish to leave it on
local time, set the TZ environment variable. For example:
SET TZ=EST5 // eastern standard time 5 hours behind
SET TZ=PDT7 // pacific daylight time 7 hours behind
SET TZ=CEU-2 // european central time 2 hours ahead
SET TZ NST3:30 // newfoundland std time 3 hours 30 minutes behind
The first three letters of the TZ spec don't mean anything, but the time
offset does. For example,
SET TZ=XYZ-6:27 // tells CT to assume you are 6 hours, 27 minutes
// ahead of UTC
CT will automatically compute UTC based on the TZ variable. CT won't
compensate for daylight savings, avoiding the sudden change in time
during CQWW SSB.
