Alo,

I am making a log file, and the sample that I found has a time zone of +0100, which appears to be about 6 hours ahead of me... denmark i think, anyways...

I have seen different ways of doing the timezone, including +GMT+1...

I am in the EST zone. Does anyone know what the make up of the timezone is, and how I can better suit my geography?

+0100 is GMT+1

it breaks down into the first two characters are hours, and the second two are minutes.

so i would write it like: -0600

EST is GMT-5 (-0500),
EDT is GMT-4 (-0400)
