# ParseClockScanFormat --
#
#	Parses a format string given to [clock scan -format]
#
# Parameters:
#	formatString - The format being parsed
#	locale - The current locale
#
# Results:
#	Constructs and returns a procedure that accepts the
#	string being scanned, the base time, and the time zone.  
#	The procedure will either return the scanned time or
#	else throw an error that should be rethrown to the caller
#	of [clock scan]
#
# Side effects:
#	The given procedure is defined in the ::tcl::clock
#	namespace.  Scan procedures are not deleted once installed.
#
# Why do we parse dates by defining a procedure to parse them?
# The reason is that by doing so, we have one convenient place to
# cache all the information: the regular expressions that match the
# patterns (which will be compiled), the code that assembles the
# date information, everything lands in one place.  In this way,
# when a given format is reused at run time, all the information
# of how to apply it is available in a single place.

# Parameters:
#	tz	Time zone specifier to be interpreted
#
# Results:
#	Returns a dictionary whose values contain the various pieces of
#	the time zone specification.
#
# Side effects:
#	None.
#
# Errors:
#	Throws an error if the syntax of the time zone is incorrect.
#
# The following keys are present in the dictionary:
#	stdName - Name of the time zone when Daylight Saving Time
#		  is not in effect.
#	stdSignum - Sign (+, -, or empty) of the offset from Greenwich 
#		    to the given (non-DST) time zone.  + and the empty
#		    string denote zones west of Greenwich, - denotes east
#		    of Greenwich; this is contrary to the ISO convention
#		    but follows Posix.
#	stdHours - Hours part of the offset from Greenwich to the given
#		   (non-DST) time zone.
#	stdMinutes - Minutes part of the offset from Greenwich to the
#		     given (non-DST) time zone. Empty denotes zero.
#	stdSeconds - Seconds part of the offset from Greenwich to the
#		     given (non-DST) time zone. Empty denotes zero.
#	dstName - Name of the time zone when DST is in effect, or the
#		  empty string if the time zone does not observe Daylight
#		  Saving Time.
#	dstSignum, dstHours, dstMinutes, dstSeconds -
#		Fields corresponding to stdSignum, stdHours, stdMinutes,
#		stdSeconds for the Daylight Saving Time version of the
#		time zone.  If dstHours is empty, it is presumed to be 1.
#	startDayOfYear - The ordinal number of the day of the year on which
#			 Daylight Saving Time begins.  If this field is
#			 empty, then DST begins on a given month-week-day,
#			 as below.
#	startJ - The letter J, or an empty string.  If a J is present in
#		 this field, then startDayOfYear does not count February 29
#		 even in leap years.
#	startMonth - The number of the month in which Daylight Saving Time
#		     begins, supplied if startDayOfYear is empty.  If both
#		     startDayOfYear and startMonth are empty, then US rules
#		     are presumed.
#	startWeekOfMonth - The number of the week in the month in which
#			   Daylight Saving Time begins, in the range 1-5.
#			   5 denotes the last week of the month even in a
#			   4-week month.
#	startDayOfWeek - The number of the day of the week (Sunday=0,
#			 Saturday=6) on which Daylight Saving Time begins.
#	startHours - The hours part of the time of day at which Daylight
#		     Saving Time begins. An empty string is presumed to be 2.
#	startMinutes - The minutes part of the time of day at which DST begins.
#		       An empty string is presumed zero.
#	startSeconds - The seconds part of the time of day at which DST begins.
#		       An empty string is presumed zero.
#	endDayOfYear, endJ, endMonth, endWeekOfMonth, endDayOfWeek,
#	endHours, endMinutes, endSeconds -
#		Specify the end of DST in the same way that the start* fields
#		specify the beginning of DST.
#		
# This procedure serves only to break the time specifier into fields.

# clock add --
#
#	Adds an offset to a given time.
#
# Syntax:
#	clock add clockval ?count unit?... ?-option value?
#
# Parameters:
#	clockval -- Starting time value
#	count -- Amount of a unit of time to add
#	unit -- Unit of time to add, must be one of:
#			years year months month weeks week
#			days day hours hour minutes minute
#			seconds second
#
# Options:
#	-gmt BOOLEAN
#		(Deprecated) Flag synonymous with '-timezone :GMT'
#	-timezone ZONE
#		Name of the time zone in which calculations are to be done.
#	-locale NAME
#		Name of the locale in which calculations are to be done.
#		Used to determine the Gregorian change date.
#
# Results:
#	Returns the given time adjusted by the given offset(s) in
#	order.
#
# Notes:
#	It is possible that adding a number of months or years will adjust
#	the day of the month as well.  For instance, the time at
#	one month after 31 January is either 28 or 29 February, because
#	February has fewer than 31 days.
