Function: list Unix2PST_PDT(integer unixtime);
Returns a string containing the SLT date and time, annotated with PST or PDT as appropriate, corresponding to the given Unix time.
e.g. Wed 2013-12-25 06:48 PST
• integer | unixtime | – | a point in time represented by the number of seconds since 00:00 hours, Jan 1, 1970 UTC, e.g. a value returned by llGetUnixTime() |
