Examples

<lsl>// Real World Sun integer Flag;

default {

   {
       Flag = -1;
       llSetTimerEvent(0.1);
   }
   
   timer()
   {
       float time = llGetWallclock();
       if (Flag == -1)
       {
           llSetTimerEvent(60.0);
       }
       if (time < 21600)
       {

           {
               llSetText("The Sun is coming! :)", <1,1,0>, 1.0);
               Flag = 0;
           }

Notes

To determine if the current time returned by this function is PST or PDT, you can look at the difference between llGetGMTclock() and llGetWallclock(). The difference will be either 8 hours or -16 hours for PST, and 7 hours or -17 hours for PDT, that is 28800 or -57600, or 25200 or -61200 seconds.
