1. Adding 'x' hours to a time zone to result GMT time will not take into consideration daylight savings time.

I am able to pull GMT using PERL. PERL can retrieve time with localtime(time) or gmtime(time). However, to pass the variable is more challenging.
In the end, it would be nice if Kix could find a variable that would extract GMT time. For example, @time provides time that local machine is running. @gmtime could provide time based on GMT.
Hmmmmmm? and keep it under 200 lines of code?

thanks for the input so far.
