Environment Variables

Following environment variables can affect execution of utilities:


G_MESSAGES_DEBUG

Setting G_MESSAGES_DEBUG=rifiuti2 would cause programs to print more debugging output to stderr.


TZ

If non-empty, indicate user-specified time zone when -z option is used.

Normally the time zone information is obtained from system and there is no need to set this variable. However, it can be used as a facility to temporarily override timezone for some programs, which can be used for situations like constructing timeline event.

This value is OS dependent; please consult manual for your operating system for more info. Using Los Angeles for example:

Platform Value
Windows PST8PDT
Linux America/Los_Angeles
